1. Overview
Overview
This manual provides you with the information for installing, configuring, and operating the
Mediant 2000 SIP gateway (referred to throughout this manual as device).
The device is a SIP-based Voice-over-IP (VoIP) media gateway. the device enables voice,
fax, and data traffic to be sent over the same IP network.
The device provides excellent voice quality and optimized packet voice streaming over IP
networks. The device uses the award-winning, field-proven VoIPerfect™ voice compression
technology, typically implemented in AudioCodes products.
The device incorporates 1, 2, 4, 8 or 16 E1, T1, or J1 spans for direct connection to the
Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) / Private Branch Exchange (PBX) through
digital telephony trunks. The device also provides SIP trunking capabilities for Enterprises
operating with multiple Internet Telephony Service Providers (ITSP) for VoIP services. The
device includes two 10/100Base-TX Ethernet ports, providing redundancy connection to the
network.
The device supports up to 480 simultaneous VoIP or Fax over IP (FoIP) calls, supporting
various Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) Primary Rate Interface (PRI) protocols
such as EuroISDN, North American NI2, Lucent™ 4/5ESS, Nortel™ DMS100 and others. In
addition, it supports different variants of Channel Associated Signaling (CAS) protocols for
E1 and T1 spans, including MFC R2, E&M immediate start, E&M delay dial/start, loop start
and ground start.
The device, best suited for large and medium-sized VoIP applications is a compact device,
comprising a 19-inch, 1U chassis with optional dual AC or single DC power supplies. The
deployment architecture can include several devices in branch or departmental offices,
connected to local PBXs. Call routing is performed by the devices using internal routing or
SIP Proxy(s).
The device enables users to make cost-effective, long distance or international
telephone/fax calls between distributed company offices, using their existing
telephones/fax. These calls can be routed over the existing network using state-of-the-art
compression techniques, ensuring that voice traffic uses minimum bandwidth.
The device can also route calls over the network using SIP signaling protocol, enabling the
deployment of Voice over Packet solutions in environments where access is enabled to
PSTN subscribers by using a trunking device. This provides the ability to transmit voice and
telephony signals between a packet network and a TDM network.
Notes:
Version 5.6
•
The device is offered as a 1-module (up to 240 channels or 8 trunk
spans) or 2-module (for 480 channels or 16 trunk spans only) platform.
The latter configuration supports two TrunkPack modules, each having its
own IP address. Configuration instructions in this document relate to the
device as a 1-module platform and must be repeated for the second
module as well.
•
For channel capacity, refer to the device's specifications in ''Selected
Technical Specifications'' on page 409.

SIP Overview
Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) is an application-layer control (signaling) protocol used on
the gateway for creating, modifying, and terminating sessions with one or more participants.
These sessions can include Internet telephone calls, media announcements, and
conferences.
SIP invitations are used to create sessions and carry session descriptions that enable
participants to agree on a set of compatible media types. SIP uses elements called Proxy
servers to help route requests to the user's current location, authenticate and authorize
users for services, implement provider call-routing policies and provide features to users.
SIP also provides a registration function that enables users to upload their current locations
for use by Proxy servers. SIP implemented in the gateway, complies with the Internet
Engineering Task Force (IETF) RFC 3261 (refer to http://www.ietf.org).

Navigation Tree
The Navigation tree, located in the Navigation pane, displays the menus (pertaining to the
menu tab selected on the Navigation bar) used for accessing the configuration pages. The
Navigation tree displays a tree-like structure of menus. You can easily drill-down to the
required page item level to open its corresponding page in the Work pane.
The terminology used throughout this manual for referring to the hierarchical structure of
the tree is as follows:
„
menu: first level (highest level)
„
submenu: second level - contained within a menu.
„
page item: last level (lowest level in a menu) - contained within a menu or submenu.

3.3.2.1
Navigate to the required page item, by performing the following:
•
Drilling-down using the plus
signs to expand the menus and submenus
•
Drilling-up using the minus
signs to collapse the menus and submenus
Select the required page item; the page opens in the Work pane.
Displaying Navigation Tree in Basic and Full View
You can view an expanded or reduced Navigation tree display regarding the number of
listed menus and submenus. This is relevant when using the configuration tabs
(Configuration, Management, and Status & Diagnostics) on the Navigation bar.
The Navigation tree menu can be displayed in one of two views:
„
Basic: displays only commonly used menus
„
Full: displays all the menus pertaining to a configuration tab.
The advantage of the Basic view is that it prevents "cluttering" the Navigation tree with
menus that may not be required. Therefore, a Basic view allows you to easily locate
required menus.
¾ To toggle between Full and Basic view, take this step:
„
Select the Basic option (located below the Navigation bar) to display a reduced menu
tree; select the Full option to display all the menus. By default, the Basic option is
selected.
Figure 3-5: Navigation Tree in Basic and Full View

•
You can also access certain pages from the Device Actions button
located on the toolbar (refer to ''Toolbar'' on page 21).
•
To view all the menus in the Navigation tree, ensure that the Navigation
tree is in 'Full' view (refer to ''Displaying Navigation Tree in Basic and Full
View'' on page 24).
•
To get Online Help for the currently opened page, refer to ''Getting Help''
on page 45.
•
Certain pages may not be accessible if your Web user account's access
level is low (refer to ''Configuring the Web User Accounts'' on page 99).
Viewing Parameters
For convenience, some pages allow you to view a reduced or expanded display of
parameters. A reduced display allows you to easily identify required parameters, enabling
you to quickly configure your device.
The Web interface provides you with two methods for handling the display of page
parameters:
„
Display of "basic" and "advanced" parameters (refer to ''Displaying Basic and
Advanced Parameters'' on page 27)
„
Display of parameter groups (refer to ''Showing / Hiding Parameter Groups'' on page
28)
Note: Certain pages may only be read-only if your Web user account's access level
is low (refer to ''Configuring the Web User Accounts'' on page 99). If a page is
read-only, 'Read-Only Mode' is displayed at the bottom of the page.

¾ To save configuration changes on a page to the device's volatile
memory (RAM), take this step:
„
Click the Submit
button, which is located near the bottom of the page in which
you are working; modifications to parameters with on-the-fly capabilities are
immediately applied to the device and take effect; other parameters (displayed on the

page with the lightning
reset (refer to ''Resetting the Device'' on page 228) before taking effect.
Notes:
Version 5.6
•
Parameters saved to the volatile memory (by clicking Submit), revert to
their previous settings after a hardware or software reset (or if the device
is powered down). Therefore, to ensure parameter changes (whether onthe-fly or not) are retained, you need to save ('burn') them to the device's
non-volatile memory, i.e., flash (refer to ''Saving Configuration'' on page
230).
•
If you modify a parameter value and then attempt to navigate away from
the page without clicking Submit, a message box appears notifying you
of this. Click Yes to save your modifications or No to ignore them.

Notes:
•
When adding more than one interface to the table, ensure that you
enable VLANs, using the 'VLAN Mode' (VlANMode) parameter.
•
When booting using BootP/DHCP protocols (refer to the Product
Reference Manual), an IP address is obtained from the server. This
address is used as the OAMP address for this session, overriding the IP
address you configured in the 'Multiple Interface Table' page. The
address specified in this table takes effect only after you save the
configuration to the device's flash memory. This enables the device to
use a temporary IP address for initial management and configuration,
while retaining the address (defined in this table) for deployment.

Parameter
Prefix Length
Description
This column lists the number of ‘1’ bits in the subnet mask (i.e., replaces the
standard dotted-decimal representation of the subnet mask for IPv4
interfaces). For example: A subnet mask of 255.0.0.0 is represented by a
prefix length of 8 (i.e., 11111111 00000000 00000000 00000000), and a
subnet mask of 255.255.255.252 is represented by a prefix length of 30 (i.e.,
11111111 11111111 11111111 11111100).
The prefix length is a Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR) style
presentation of a dotted-decimal subnet notation. The CIDR-style
presentation is the latest method for interpretation of IP addresses.
Specifically, instead of using eight-bit address blocks, it uses the variablelength subnet masking technique to allow allocation on arbitrary-length
prefixes (refer to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classless_InterDomain_Routing for more information).
The prefix length values range from 0 to 31.
Defines the IP address of the default gateway used by the device.
Notes:
ƒ
Only one default gateway can be configured for the device and it must be
configured on an interface for Media traffic. All other table entries for this
column must have the value 0.0.0.0.
ƒ
The default gateway's IP address must be in the same subnet as the
interface address.
ƒ
For configuring additional routing rules for other interfaces, refer to
''Configuring the IP Routing Table'' on page 62.
Gateway
VLAN ID
Interface Name
Defines the VLAN ID for each interface. When using VLANs, the VLAN ID
must be unique for each interface. Incoming traffic tagged with this VLAN ID
is routed to the corresponding interface, and outgoing traffic from that
interface is tagged with this VLAN ID.
Defines a string (up to 16 characters) to name this interface. This name is
displayed in management interfaces (Web, CLI and SNMP) for better
readability and has no functional use.
Note: The interface name is a mandatory parameter and must be unique for
each interface.
General Parameters
VLAN Mode
[VlANMode]
Native VLAN ID
[VLANNativeVlanID]
For a description of this parameter, refer to ''Configuring the IP Settings'' on
page 50.
Defines the VLAN ID to which untagged incoming traffic is assigned.
Outgoing packets sent to this VLAN are sent only with a priority tag (VLAN
ID = 0).
When this parameter is equal to one of the VLAN IDs in the Interface Table
(and VLANs are enabled), untagged incoming traffic is considered as an
incoming traffic for that interface. Outgoing traffic sent from this interface is
sent with the priority tag (tagged with VLAN ID = 0).
When this parameter is different from any value in the 'VLAN ID' column in
the Interface Table, untagged incoming traffic is discarded, and all outgoing
traffic is tagged.
Note: If this parameter is not set (i.e., default value is 1), but one of the
interfaces has a VLAN ID configured to 1, this interface is still considered the
‘Native’ VLAN. If you do not wish to have a ‘Native’ VLAN ID and want to use
VLAN ID 1, set this parameter to a value other than any VLAN ID in the
table.

Configuring the NFS Settings
Network File System (NFS) enables the device to access a remote server's shared files and
directories, and to handle them as if they're located locally. You can configure up to five
different NFS file systems. As a file system, the NFS is independent of machine types, OSs,
and network architectures. NFS is used by the device to load the cmp, ini, and auxiliary
files, using the Automatic Update mechanism (refer to Automatic Update Mechanism). Note
that an NFS file server can share multiple file systems. There must be a separate row for

Configuring the IP Routing Table
The 'IP Routing Table' page allows you to define up to 50 static IP routing rules for the
device. For example, you can define static routing rules for the OAMP and Control networks
since a default gateway is supported only for the Media traffic network (refer to ''Configuring
the Multiple Interface Table'' on page 53). Before sending an IP packet, the device
searches this table for an entry that matches the requested destination host / network. If
such an entry is found, the device sends the packet to the indicated router. If no explicit
entry is found, the packet is sent to the default gateway (configured in the 'IP Settings'
page-- refer to ''Configuring the IP Settings'' on page 50).
¾ To configure static IP routing, take these 3 steps:
1.
Open the 'IP Routing Table' page (Configuration tab > Network Settings menu > IP
Routing Table page item).

CNG packets are sent to the remote side according
to T.38 (if IsFaxUsed = 1) and the fax session is
started. A Re-INVITE message isn’t sent and the fax
session starts by the terminating device. This option
is useful, for example, when the originating device is
located behind a firewall that blocks incoming T.38
packets on ports that have not yet received T.38
packets from the internal network (i.e., originating
device). To also send a SIP Re-INVITE message
upon detection of a fax CNG tone in this mode, set
the parameter FaxCNGMode to 1.
ƒ
[2] Events Only = CNG is detected on the originating
side and a fax session is started by the originating
side using the Re-INVITE message. Usually, T.38 fax
session starts when the ‘preamble’ signal is detected
by the answering side. Some SIP devices don’t
support the detection of this fax signal on the
answering side and thus, in these cases it is possible
to configure the device to start the T.38 fax session
when the CNG tone is detected by the originating
side. However, this mode is not recommended.
Defines the maximum size of a T.38 datagram that the
device can receive. This value is included in the

Configuring the IPmedia Settings
The 'IPMedia Settings' page allows you to configure the IP media parameters. This includes
Automatic Gain Control (AGC) parameters. AGC equalizes the energy of the output signal
to a required level. It estimates the energy of the incoming signal, calculates the essential
gain and performs amplification. Feedback ensures that the output signal is not clipped.
You can define the required Gain Slope in decibels/sec and the required energy threshold.
When the AGC first detects a signal in the input, it begins operating in Fast Mode. This
means that the Gain Slope is 8 dB/sec for the first 1.5 seconds. After this period, the Gain
Slope is changed to the user-defined value. You can disable or enable the feature by using
the ini file parameter AGCDisableFastAdaptation. After Fast Mode is used, the signal
should be off for two minutes in order to have the feature turned on again. (This feature is
designed so that AGC can fast-adapt when a conversation is started).
¾ To configure the IP media parameters, take these 4 steps:
1.
Open the 'IPMedia Settings' page (Configuration tab > Media Settings menu >
IPmedia Settings page item).

ƒ
The default behavior (value 0) is as follows:
- ISDN: Use Service messages on supporting variants and use
Alarm on non-supporting variants.
- CAS: Use Alarm.
ƒ
When updating this parameter value at run-time, you must stop
the trunk and then restart it for the update to take effect.
ƒ
To determine the method for setting Out-Of-Service state for all
trunks (i.e., per device), use the DigitalOOSBehavior parameter
(refer to ''Configuring the Digital Gateway Parameters'' on page
207).
ƒ
The ID in the ini file parameter name represents the trunk

PlayRBTone2Tel.
ƒ
[0] Don't Play = The device configured with ISDN / CAS protocol
type, doesn't play an RBT. No PI is sent to the ISDN unless the
parameter ProgressIndicator2ISDN_ID is configured differently.
ƒ
[1] Play on Local = The device configured with CAS protocol
type, plays a local RBT to PSTN upon receipt of a 180 Ringing
response (with or without SDP). Note: Receipt of a 183 response
doesn't cause the device configured with CAS to play an RBT
(unless SIP183Behaviour = 1).
The device configured with ISDN protocol type operates
according to the parameter LocalISDNRBSource:
1) If the device receives a 180 Ringing response (with or without
SDP) and LocalISDNRBSource = 1, it plays an RBT and sends
an Alert with PI = 8 (unless the parameter
ProgressIndicator2ISDN_ID is configured differently).
2) If LocalISDNRBSource = 0, the device doesn't play an RBT
and an Alert message (without PI) is sent to the ISDN. In this
case, the PBX / PSTN should play the RBT to the originating
terminal by itself.
Note: Receipt of a 183 response doesn't cause the device with
ISDN protocol type to play an RBT; the device issues a Progress
message (unless SIP183Behaviour = 1). If SIP183Behaviour = 1,
the 183 response is treated the same way as a 180 Ringing
response.

doesn't play the RBT; PI = 8 is sent in an ISDN Alert message
(unless the parameter ProgressIndicator2ISDN_ID is configured
differently).
If a 180 response is received, but the 'early media' voice channel
is not opened, the device with CAS protocol type plays an RBT to
the PSTN. The device with ISDN protocol type operates
according to the parameter LocalISDNRBSource:
1) If LocalISDNRBSource = 1, the device plays an RBT and
sends an ISDN Alert with PI = 8 to the ISDN (unless the
parameter ProgressIndicator2ISDN_ID is configured differently).
2) If LocalISDNRBSource = 0, the device doesn't play an RBT.
No PI is sent in the ISDN Alert message (unless the parameter
ProgressIndicator2ISDN_ID is configured differently). In this case,
the PBX / PSTN should play an RBT tone to the originating
terminal by itself.
Note: Receipt of a 183 response results in an ISDN Progress
message (unless SIP183Behaviour = 1). If SIP183Behaviour = 1
(183 is handled the same way as a 180 + SDP), the device sends
an Alert message with PI = 8, without playing an RBT.

Configuring the CAS State Machines
The 'CAS State Machine' page allows you to modify various timers and other basic
parameters to define the initialization of the CAS state machine without changing the state
machine itself (no compilation is required). The change doesn't affect the state machine
itself, but rather the configuration.
¾ To modify the CAS state machine parameters, take these 6 steps:
1.
Open the ‘CAS State Machine' page (Configuration tab > PSTN Settings menu >
CAS State Machines page item).
Figure 3-49: CAS State Machine Page
2.
Ensure that the trunk is inactive. The trunk number displayed in the 'Related Trunks'
field must be green. If it is red (indicating that the trunk is active), click the trunk
number to open the 'Trunk Settings' page (refer to ''Configuring the Trunk Settings'' on
page 82), select the required Trunk number icon, and then click Stop Trunk.
3.
In the 'CAS State Machine' page, modify the required parameters according to the
table below.
4.
Once you have completed the configuration, activate the trunk if required in the 'Trunk
Settings' page, by clicking the trunk number in the 'Related Trunks' field, and in the
'Trunk Settings' page, select the required Trunk number icon, and then click Apply
Trunk Settings.
5.
Click Submit.
6.
Reset the device (refer to ''Resetting the Device'' on page 228).
Notes:
Version 5.6
•
It's strongly recommended that you don't modify the default values unless
you fully understand the implications of the changes and know the default
values. Every change affects the configuration of the state machine
parameters and the call process related to the trunk you are using with
this state machine.
•
You can modify CAS state machine parameters only if the following
conditions are met:
1) Trunks are inactive (stopped), i.e., the 'Related Trunks' field displays
the trunk number in green.
2) State machine is not in use or is in reset, or when it is not related to
any trunk. If it is related to a trunk, you must delete the trunk or deactivate (Stop) the trunk.
•
Field values displaying '-1' indicate CAS default values. In other words,
CAS state machine values are used.
•
The modification of the CAS state machine occurs at the CAS application
initialization only for non-default values (-1).
•
For a detailed description of the CAS Protocol table, refer to the Product
Reference Manual.

Configuring the Web User Accounts
To prevent unauthorized access to the Web interface, two Web user accounts are available
(primary and secondary) with assigned user name, password, and access level. When you
login to the Web interface, you are requested to provide the user name and password of
one of these Web user accounts. If the Web session is idle (i.e., no actions are performed)
for more than five minutes, the Web session expires and you are once again requested to
login with your user name and password. Up to five Web users can simultaneously open
(log in to) a session on the device's Web interface.
Each Web user account is composed of three attributes:
„
User name and password: enables access (login) to the Web interface.
„
Access level: determines the extent of the access (i.e., availability of pages and read /
write privileges). The available access levels and their corresponding privileges are
listed in the table below:

it's deleted.
Configuring the Firewall Settings
The device provides an internal firewall, allowing you (the security administrator) to define
network traffic filtering rules. You can add up to 50 ordered firewall rules. For each packet
received on the network interface, the table is scanned from the top down until a matching
rule is found. This rule can either deny (block) or permit (allow) the packet. Once a rule in
the table is located, subsequent rules further down the table are ignored. If the end of the
table is reached without a match, the packet is accepted. For detailed information on the
internal firewall, refer to the Product Reference Manual.
Note: You can also configure the firewall settings using the ini file table parameter
AccessList (refer to ''Security Parameters'' on page 276).
¾ To add firewall rules, take these 5 steps:

Configuring the Certificates
The 'Certificates' page is used for the following:
„
Replacing the server certificate (refer to ''Server Certificate Replacement'' on page
105)
„
Replacing the client certificates (refer to ''Client Certificates'' on page 108)
„
Regenerating Self-Signed Certificates (refer to ''Self-Signed Certificates'' on page 109)
„
Updating the private key (using HTTPSPkeyFileName, as described in the Product
Reference Manual).
3.4.6.4.1 Server Certificate Replacement
The device is supplied with a working Secure Socket Layer (SSL) configuration consisting
of a unique self-signed server certificate. If an organizational Public Key Infrastructure (PKI)
is used, you may wish to replace this certificate with one provided by your security
administrator.
Version 5.6
105
November 2008
Mediant 2000
¾ To replace the device's self-signed certificate, take these 8 steps:
1.
Your network administrator should allocate a unique DNS name for the device (e.g.,
dns_name.corp.customer.com). This DNS name is used to access the device and
should therefore, be listed in the server certificate.
2.
Open the ‘Certificates Signing Request' page (Configuration tab > Security Settings
menu > Certificates page item).
Figure 3-54: Certificates Signing Request Page
3.
In the 'Subject Name' field, enter the DNS name, and then click Generate CSR. A
textual certificate signing request that contains the SSL device identifier is displayed.
4.
Copy this text and send it to your security provider. The security provider (also known
as Certification Authority or CA) signs this request and then sends you a server
certificate for the device.
5.
Save the certificate to a file (e.g., cert.txt). Ensure that the file is a plain-text file
containing the ‘BEGIN CERTIFICATE’ header, as shown in the example of a Base64Encoded X.509 Certificate below:
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----MIIDkzCCAnugAwIBAgIEAgAAADANBgkqhkiG9w0BAQQFADA/MQswCQYDVQQGEwJGUj

-----END CERTIFICATE----6.
Set the parameter 'Secured Web Connection (HTTPS)' to 'HTTPS Only' (0) (refer to
''Configuring the General Security Settings'' on page 109) to ensure you have a
method of accessing the device in case the new certificate doesn’t work. Restore the
previous setting after testing the configuration.

7.
In the 'Certificates Files' group, click the Browse button corresponding to 'Send Server
Certificate...', navigate to the cert.txt file, and then click Send File.
8.
When the loading of the certificate is complete, save the configuration (refer to ''Saving
Configuration'' on page 230) and restart the device; the Web interface uses the
provided certificate.
Notes:
•
The certificate replacement process can be repeated when necessary
(e.g., the new certificate expires).
•
It is possible to use the IP address of the device (e.g., 10.3.3.1) instead of
a qualified DNS name in the Subject Name. This is not recommended
since the IP address is subject to changes and may not uniquely identify
the device.
•
The server certificate can also be loaded via ini file using the parameter
HTTPSCertFileName.
¾ To apply the loaded certificate for IPsec negotiations, take these 2
steps:
1.
Open the ‘IKE Table’ page (refer to ''Configuring the IKE Table'' on page 117); the
'Loaded Certificates Files' group lists the newly uploaded certificates, as shown below:
Figure 3-55: IKE Table Listing Loaded Certificate Files

Click the Apply button to load the certificates; future IKE negotiations are now
performed using the new certificates.

Mediant 2000
3.4.6.4.2 Client Certificates
By default, Web servers using SSL provide one-way authentication. The client is certain
that the information provided by the Web server is authentic. When an organizational PKI is
used, two-way authentication may be desired: both client and server should be
authenticated using X.509 certificates. This is achieved by installing a client certificate on
the managing PC, and loading the same certificate (in base64-encoded X.509 format) to
the device's Trusted Root Certificate Store. The Trusted Root Certificate file should contain
both the certificate of the authorized user and the certificate of the CA.
Since X.509 certificates have an expiration date and time, the device must be configured to
use NTP (refer to ''Simple Network Time Protocol Support'' on page 383) to obtain the
current date and time. Without the correct date and time, client certificates cannot work.
¾ To enable two-way client certificates, take these 5 steps:
1.
Set the parameter 'Secured Web Connection (HTTPS)' to 'HTTPS Only' (0) in
''Configuring the General Security Settings'' on page 109 to ensure you have a method
of accessing the device in case the client certificate doesn’t work. Restore the previous
setting after testing the configuration.
2.
Open the ‘Certificates Signing Request' page (refer to ''Server Certificate
Replacement'' on page 105).
3.
In the 'Certificates Files' group, click the Browse button corresponding to 'Send
"Trusted Root Certificate Store" file ...', navigate to the file, and then click Send File.

parameter
When a user connects to the secured Web server:
„
If the user has a client certificate from a CA that is listed in the Trusted Root Certificate
file, the connection is accepted and the user is prompted for the system password.
„
If both the CA certificate and the client certificate appear in the Trusted Root Certificate
file, the user is not prompted for a password (thus, providing a single-sign-on
experience - the authentication is performed using the X.509 digital signature).
„
If the user doesn’t have a client certificate from a listed CA, or doesn’t have a client
certificate at all, the connection is rejected.
Notes:
SIP User's Manual
•
The process of installing a client certificate on your PC is beyond the
scope of this document. For more information, refer to your Web browser
or operating system documentation, and/or consult your security
administrator.
•
The root certificate can also be loaded via ini file using the parameter
HTTPSRootFileName.
•
You can enable Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) on the device
to check whether a peer's certificate has been revoked by an OCSP
server. For further information, refer to the Product Reference Manual.

3.4.6.4.3 Self-Signed Certificates
The device is shipped with an operational, self-signed server certificate. The subject name
for this default certificate is 'ACL_nnnnnnn', where nnnnnnn denotes the serial number of
the device. However, this subject name may not be appropriate for production and can be
changed while still using self-signed certificates.
¾ To change the subject name and regenerate the self-signed
certificate, take these 4 steps:
1.
Before you begin, ensure the following:
•
You have a unique DNS name for the device (e.g.,
dns_name.corp.customer.com). This name is used to access the device and
should therefore, be listed in the server certificate.
•
No traffic is running on the device. The certificate generation process is disruptive
to traffic and should be executed during maintenance time.
2.
Open the ‘Certificates’ page (refer to ''Server Certificate Replacement'' on page 105).
3.
In the 'Subject Name' field, enter the fully-qualified DNS name (FQDN) as the
certificate subject, and then click Generate Self-signed; after a few seconds, a
message appears displaying the new subject name.
4.
Save configuration (refer to ''Saving Configuration'' on page 230), and then restart the
device for the new certificate to take effect.

Parameter
Description
DNS name (DNSName) or an IP address. If no match is found
and the SubjectAltName is marked as ‘critical’, the TLS
connection is not established. If DNSName is used, the
certificate can also use wildcards (‘*’) to replace parts of the
domain name.
If the SubjectAltName is not marked as ‘critical’ and there is no
match, the CN value of the SubjectName field is compared with
the parameter TLSRemoteSubjectName. If a match is found,
the connection is established. Otherwise, the connection is
terminated.
TLS Client Verify Server Certificate
[VerifyServerCertificate]
Determines whether the device, when acting as client for TLS
connections, verifies the Server certificate. The certificate is
verified with the Root CA information.
ƒ
[0] Disable (default).
ƒ
[1] Enable.
Note: If Subject Name verification is necessary, the parameter
PeerHostNameVerificationMode must be used as well.
TLS Remote Subject Name
[TLSRemoteSubjectName]
Defines the Subject Name that is compared with the name
defined in the remote side certificate when establishing TLS
connections.
If the SubjectAltName of the received certificate is not equal to
any of the defined Proxies Host names/IP addresses and is not
marked as 'critical', the Common Name (CN) of the Subject
field is compared with this value. If not equal, the TLS
connection is not established. If the CN uses a domain name,
the certificate can also use wildcards (‘*’) to replace parts of the
domain name.
The valid range is a string of up to 49 characters.
Note: This parameter is applicable only if the parameter
PeerHostNameVerificationMode is set to 1 or 2.

configured for each of the 20 available peers.
Table 3-29: IKE Table Configuration Parameters
Parameter Name
Authentication Method
[IkePolicyAuthenticationMetho
d]
Description
Determines the authentication method for IKE.
ƒ
[0] Pre-shared Key (default)
ƒ
[1] RSA Signature
Notes:
Shared Key
[IKEPolicySharedKey]
ƒ
For pre-shared key authentication, peers participating in an
IKE exchange must have a prior (out-of-band) knowledge of
the common key (see IKEPolicySharedKey parameter).
ƒ
For RSA signature authentication, peers must be loaded with
a certificate signed by a common CA. For additional
information on certificates, refer to ''Server Certificate
Replacement'' on page 105.
Determines the pre-shared key (in textual format). Both peers
must register the same pre-shared key for the authentication
process to succeed.
Notes:
ƒ
The pre-shared key forms the basis of IPSec security and
should therefore, be handled cautiously (in the same way as
sensitive passwords). It is not recommended to use the same
pre-shared key for several connections.
ƒ
Since the ini file is in plain text format, loading it to the device
over a secure network connection is recommended, preferably
over a direct crossed-cable connection from a management
PC. For added confidentiality, use the encoded ini file option
(described in ''Secured Encoded ini File'' on page 255).
ƒ
After it is configured, the value of the pre-shared key cannot
be obtained via Web interface, ini file, or SNMP (refer the
Product Reference Manual).
IKE SA LifeTime (sec)
[IKEPolicyLifeInSec]
Determines the time (in seconds) the SA negotiated in the first
IKE session (main mode) is valid. After the time expires, the SA is
re-negotiated.
The default value is 28800 (i.e., 8 hours).
IKE SA LifeTime (KB)
[IKEPolicyLifeInKB]
Determines the lifetime (in kilobytes) that the SA negotiated in the
first IKE session (main mode) is valid. After this size is reached,
the SA is re-negotiated.
The default value is 0 (i.e., this parameter is ignored).
These lifetime parameters [IKE SA LifeTime (sec) and IKE SA LifeTime (KB)] determine the duration
the SA created in the main mode phase is valid. When the lifetime of the SA expires, it's automatically
renewed by performing the IKE first phase negotiations. To refrain from a situation where the SA
expires, a new SA is negotiated while the old one is still valid. As soon as the new SA is created, it
replaces the old one. This procedure occurs whenever an SA is about to expire.

Parameter
Enable Early Media
[EnableEarlyMedia]
Description
Enables the device to send a 183 Session Progress response with SDP
(instead of 180 Ringing), allowing the media stream to be established prior
to the answering of the call.
ƒ
[0] Disable = Early Media is disabled (default).
ƒ
[1] Enable = Enables Early Media.
Sending a 183 response depends on the Progress Indicator (PI). It is sent
only if PI is set to 1 or 8 are received in Proceeding or Alert PRI messages.
For CAS devices, see the ProgressIndicator2IP parameter.
183 Message Behavior
[SIP183Behaviour]
Defines the ISDN message that is sent when the 183 Session Progress
message is received for IP-to-Tel calls.

response) instead of an ISDN PROGRESS message.
Session-Expires Time
[SIPSessionExpires]
Determines the numerical value that is sent in the Session-Expires header
in the first INVITE request or response (if the call is answered).
The valid range is 1 to 86,400 sec. The default is 0 (i.e., the SessionExpires header is disabled).
Minimum SessionExpires
[MinSE]
Defines the time (in seconds) that is used in the Min-SE header. This
header defines the minimum time that the user agent refreshes the
session.
The valid range is 10 to 100,000. The default value is 90.
Session Expires
Method
[SessionExpiresMeth
od]
Determines the SIP method used for session-timer updates.
ƒ

the generated INVITE request for Caller ID (or privacy).
ƒ
[0] Disabled = None (default)
ƒ
[1] Adding PAsserted Identity
ƒ
[2] Adding PPreferred Identity
The Asserted ID mode defines the header (P-Asserted-Identity or PPreferred-Identity) that is used in the generated INVITE request. The
header also depends on the calling Privacy (allowed or restricted).
The P-Asserted-Identity (or P-Preferred-Identity) headers are used to
present the originating party's Caller ID. The Caller ID is composed of a
Calling Number and (optionally) a Calling Name.
P-Asserted-Identity (or P-Preferred-Identity) headers are used together
with the Privacy header. If Caller ID is restricted (P-Asserted-Identity is not
sent), the Privacy header includes the value 'id' ('Privacy: id'). Otherwise,
for allowed Caller ID, 'Privacy: none' is used. If Caller ID is restricted
(received from PSTN), the From header is set to
<[email protected]>.
The logic for filling the calling party parameters is as follows: the SIP
header is selected first from which the calling party parameters are
Version 5.6

Parameter
Description
obtained: first priority is P-Asserted-Identity, second is Remote-Party-ID,
and third is the From header. Once a URL is selected, all the calling party
parameters are set from this header. If P-Asserted-Identity is selected, the
Privacy header is checked and if the Privacy is set to 'id', the calling
number is assumed restricted.
Fax Signaling Method
[IsFaxUsed]
Determines the SIP signaling method for establishing and transmitting a fax
session after a fax is detected.
ƒ
[0] No Fax = No fax negotiation using SIP signaling. Fax transport
method is according to the parameter FaxTransportMode (default).
ƒ
[1] T.38 Relay = Initiates T.38 fax relay.
ƒ
[2] G.711 Transport = Initiates fax / modem using the coder G.711 Alaw/μ-law with adaptations (refer to Note below).
ƒ
[3] Fax Fallback = Initiates T.38 fax relay. If the T.38 negotiation fails,
the device re-initiates a fax session using the coder G.711 A-law/μ-law
with adaptations (refer to the Note below).
Notes:
Detect Fax on Answer
Tone
[DetFaxOnAnswerTon
e]
ƒ
Fax adaptations (for options 2 and 3):
Echo Canceller = On
Silence Compression = Off
Echo Canceller Non-Linear Processor Mode = Off
Dynamic Jitter Buffer Minimum Delay = 40
Dynamic Jitter Buffer Optimization Factor = 13
ƒ
If the device initiates a fax session using G.711 (option 2 and possibly
3), a 'gpmd' attribute is added to the SDP in the following format:
For A-law: 'a=gpmd:8 vbd=yes;ecan=on'.
For μ-law: 'a=gpmd:0 vbd=yes;ecan=on'.
ƒ
When IsFaxUsed is set to 1, 2, or 3, the parameter FaxTransportMode
is ignored.
ƒ
When the value of IsFaxUsed is other than 1, T.38 might still be used
without the control protocol's involvement. To completely disable T.38,
set FaxTransportMode to a value other than 1.
ƒ
For detailed information on fax transport methods, refer to ''Fax/Modem
Transport Modes'' on page 351.
Determines when the device initiates a T.38 session for fax transmission.
ƒ
[0] Initiate T.38 on Preamble = The device to which the called fax is
connected initiates a T.38 session on receiving Preamble signal from
the fax (default).
ƒ
[1] Initiate T.38 on CED = The device to which the called fax is
connected initiates a T.38 session on receiving a CED answer tone
from the fax. This option can only be used to relay fax signals, as the
device sends T.38 Re-INVITE on detection of any fax/modem Answer
tone (2100 Hz, amplitude modulated 2100 Hz, or 2100 Hz with phase
reversals). The modem signal fails when using T.38 for fax relay.
Notes:

User Agent Client (UAC) Behavior:
ƒ
Initial request: The History-Info header is equal to the Request URI. If a
PSTN Redirect number is received, it is added as an additional HistoryInfo header with an appropriate reason.
ƒ
Upon receiving the final failure response, the device copies the HistoryInfo as is, adds the reason of the failure response to the last entry, and
concatenates a new destination to it (if an additional request is sent).
The order of the reasons is as follows:
1. Q.850 Reason
2. SIP Reason
3. SIP Response code
Upon receiving the final response (success or failure), the device
searches for a Redirect reason in the History-Info (i.e., 3xx/4xx SIP
reason). If found, it is passed to ISDN according to the following table:
SIP Reason Code
ISDN Redirecting Reason
ƒ
302 - Moved Temporarily
Call Forward Universal (CFU)
408 - Request Timeout
Call Forward No Answer (CFNA)
480 - Temporarily Unavailable
487 - Request Terminated
486 - Busy Here
Call Forward Busy (CFB)
600 - Busy Everywhere
ƒ
If history reason is a Q.850 reason, it is translated to the SIP reason
(according to the SIP-ISDN tables) and then to ISDN Redirect reason
according to the table above.
User Agent Server (UAS) Behavior:
Use Source Number as
Display Name
[UseSourceNumberA
sDisplayName]
Version 5.6
ƒ
The History-Info header is sent only in the final response.
ƒ
Upon receiving a request with History-Info, the UAS checks the policy in
the request. If 'session', 'header', or 'history' policy tag is found, the
(final) response is sent without History-Info; otherwise, it is copied from
the request.
Determines the use of Tel Source Number and Display Name for Tel-to-IP
calls.
ƒ
[0] No = If a Tel Display Name is received, the Tel Source Number is
used as the IP Source Number and the Tel Display Name is used as the
IP Display Name. If no Display Name is received from the Tel side, the
IP Display Name remains empty (default).
ƒ
[1] Yes = If a Tel Display Name is received, the Tel Source Number is
used as the IP Source Number and the Tel Display Name is used as the
IP Display Name. If no Display Name is received from the Tel side, the
Tel Source Number is used as the IP Source Number and also as the IP
Display Name.
ƒ
[2] Overwrite = The Tel Source Number is used as the IP Source
Number and also as the IP Display Name (even if the received Tel
Display Name is not empty).

Description
Determines the use of Source Number and Display Name for IP-to-Tel
calls.
ƒ
[0] No = If IP Display Name is received, the IP Source Number is used
as the Tel Source Number and the IP Display Name is used as the Tel
Display Name. If no Display Name is received from IP, the Tel Display
Name remains empty (default).
ƒ
[1] Yes = If an IP Display Name is received, it is used as the Tel Source
Number and also as the Tel Display Name, and Presentation is set to
Allowed (0). If no Display Name is received from IP, the IP Source
Number is used as the Tel Source Number and Presentation is set to
Restricted (1).
For example: When 'from: 100 <sip:[email protected]>' is received,
the outgoing Source Number and Display Name are set to '100' and the
Presentation is set to Allowed (0).
When 'from: <sip:[email protected]>' is received, the outgoing Source
Number is set to '100' and the Presentation is set to Restricted (1).

[PlayRBTone2IP]
Determines whether the device sets the Contact header of outgoing
INVITE requests to ‘anonymous’ for restricted calls.
ƒ
[0] = Disabled (default)
ƒ
[1] = Enabled
Determines whether or not the device plays a ringback tone (RBT) to the IP
side of the call (IP-to-Tel calls).
ƒ
[0] Don't Play = Ringback tone isn't played (default).
ƒ
[1] Play = Ringback tone is played after SIP 183 session progress
response is sent.
If configured to 1 ('Play') and EnableEarlyMedia = 1, the device plays a
ringback tone according to the following:
ƒ
For CAS interfaces: the device opens a voice channel, sends a
183+SDP response, and then plays a ringback tone to IP.
ƒ
For ISDN interfaces: if a Progress or an Alert message with PI (1 or 8) is
received from the ISDN, the device opens a voice channel, sends a
183+SDP or 180+SDP response, but doesn't play a ringback tone to IP.
If PI (1 or 8) is received from the ISDN, the device assumes that
ringback tone is played by the ISDN switch. Otherwise, the device plays
a ringback tone to IP after receiving an Alert message from the ISDN. It
sends a 180+SDP response, signaling to the calling party to open a
voice channel to hear the played ringback tone.

Use Tgrp Information
[UseSIPTgrp]
Enable GRUU
[EnableGRUU]
[2] Play According to Early Media = Ringback tone is played to the Tel
side of the call if no SDP is received in 180/183 responses. If 180/183
with SDP message is received, the device cuts through the voice
channel and doesn't play ringback tone (default).
Determines whether the SIP 'tgrp' parameter, which specifies the Trunk
Group to which the call belongs is used, according to RFC 4904.
For example:
INVITE sip::+16305550100;tgrp=1;[email protected];user=phone SIP/2.0
ƒ
[0] Disable = The 'tgrp' parameter isn't used (default).
ƒ
[1] Send Only = The Trunk Group number is added to the 'tgrp'
parameter value in the Contact header of outgoing SIP messages. If a
Trunk Group number is not associated with the call, the 'tgrp' parameter
isn't included. If a 'tgrp' value is specified in incoming messages, it is
ignored.
ƒ
[2] Send and Receive = The functionality of outgoing SIP messages is
identical to the functionality described in option (1). In addition, for
incoming SIP messages, if the Request-URI includes a 'tgrp' parameter,
the device routes the call according to that value (if possible). If the
Contact header includes a 'tgrp' parameter, it is copied to the
corresponding outgoing messages in that dialog.
Determines whether the Globally Routable User Agent URIs (GRUU)
mechanism is used.
ƒ
[0] Disable = Disable (default)
ƒ
[1] Enable = Enable
The device obtains a GRUU by generating a normal REGISTER request.
This request contains a Supported header with the value 'gruu'. The device
includes a '+sip.instance' Contact header parameter for each contact for
which the GRUU is desired. This Contact parameter contains a globally
unique ID that identifies the device instance.
The global unique ID is as follows:
ƒ
If registration is per endpoint (AuthenticationMode=0), it is the MAC
address of the device concatenated with the phone number of the
endpoint.
ƒ
If the registration is per device (AuthenticationMode=1) it is only the
MAC address.
ƒ
When the User Information mechanism is used, the globally unique ID is
the MAC address concatenated with the phone number of the endpoint
(defined in the User-Info file).
If the Registrar/Proxy supports GRUU, the REGISTER responses contain
the 'gruu' parameter in each Contact header field. The Registrar/Proxy
provides the same GRUU for the same AOR and instance-id in case of
sending REGISTER again after expiration of the registration.
The device places the GRUU in any header field which contains a URI. It
uses the GRUU in the following messages: INVITE requests, 2xx
responses to INVITE, SUBSCRIBE requests, 2xx responses to
SUBSCRIBE, NOTIFY requests, REFER requests, and 2xx responses to
REFER.
Note: If the GRUU contains the 'opaque' URI parameter, the device
obtains the AOR for the user by stripping the parameter. The resulting URI
is the AOR.

Parameter
Description
ƒ
[2] Routing Table = Uses the Routing table to locate the
destination and then sends a new INVITE to this destination.
Notes:
ƒ
When this parameter is set to [1] and the INVITE sent to the
Proxy fails, the device re-routes the call according to the
Standard mode [0].
ƒ
When this parameter is set to [2] and the INVITE fails, the
device re-routes the call according to the Standard mode [0]. If
DNS resolution fails, the device attempts to route the call to the
Proxy. If routing to the Proxy also fails, the Redirect / Transfer
request is rejected.
ƒ
When this parameter is set to [2], the XferPrefix parameter can
be used to define different routing rules for redirected calls.
ƒ
This parameter is disregarded if the parameter
AlwaysSendToProxy is set to 1.
Proxy / Registrar Registration Parameters

Enable Registration
[IsRegisterNeeded]
Enables the device to register to a Proxy / Registrar server.
ƒ
[0] Disable = device doesn't register to Proxy / Registrar
(default) server.
ƒ
[1] Enable = device registers to Proxy / Registrar server when
the device is powered up and at every user-defined interval
(configured by the parameter RegistrationTime).
Note: The device sends a REGISTER request for each channel or
for the entire device (according to the AuthenticationMode
parameter).
Registrar Name
[RegistrarName]
Registrar domain name. If specified, the name is used as the
Request-URI in REGISTER messages. If it isn't specified (default),
the Registrar IP address, or Proxy name or IP address is used
instead.
The valid range is up to 49 characters.
Registrar IP Address
[RegistrarIP]
The IP address (or FQDN) and optionally, port number of the SIP
Registrar server. The IP address is in dotted-decimal notation, e.g.,
201.10.8.1:<5080>.
Notes:
SIP User's Manual
ƒ
If not specified, the REGISTER request is sent to the primary
Proxy server.
ƒ
When a port number is specified, DNS NAPTR/SRV queries
aren't performed, even if DNSQueryType is set to 1 or 2.
ƒ
If the RegistrarIP is set to an FQDN and is resolved to multiple
addresses, the device also provides real-time switching
(hotswap mode) between different Registrar IP addresses
(IsProxyHotSwap is set to 1). If the first Registrar doesn't
respond to the REGISTER message, the same REGISTER
message is sent immediately to the next Proxy.
EnableProxyKeepAlive must be set to 0 for this logic to apply.
ƒ
When a specific Transport Type is defined using
RegistrarTransportType, a DNS NAPTR query is not performed
even if DNSQueryType is set to 2.

Registration Time
[RegistrationTime]
Defines the time interval (in seconds) for registering to a Proxy
server. The value is used in the Expires header. In addition, this
parameter defines the time interval between Keep-Alive messages
when the parameter EnableProxyKeepAlive is set to 2
(REGISTER).
Typically, the device registers every 3,600 sec (i.e., one hour). The
device resumes registration according to the parameter
RegistrationTimeDivider.
The valid range is 10 to 2,000,000. The default value is 180.
Re-registration Timing [%]
[RegistrationTimeDivider]
Defines the re-registration timing (in percentage). The timing is a
percentage of the re-register timing set by the Registrar server.
The valid range is 50 to 100. The default value is 50.
For example: If RegistrationTimeDivider is 70% and Registration
Expires time is 3600, the device re-sends its registration request
after 3600 x 70% = 2520 sec.
Note: This parameter may be overriden if the parameter
RegistrationTimeThreshold is greater than 0 (refer to the
description of RegistrationTimeThreshold).
Registration Retry Time

request is resent if registration fails with a 4xx response or if there
is no response from the Proxy/Registrar server.
The default is 30 seconds. The range is 10 to 3600.
Registration Time Threshold
[RegistrationTimeThreshold]
Defines a threshold (in seconds) for re-registration timing. If this
parameter is greater than 0, but lower than the computed reregistration timing (according to the parameter
RegistrationTimeDivider), the re-registration timing is set to the
following: timing set by the Registration server in the Expires
header minus the value of the parameter
RegistrationTimeThreshold.
The valid range is 0 to 2,000,000. The default value is 0.
Re-register On INVITE Failure

Parameter
Description
Miscellaneous parameters
Gateway Name
[SIPGatewayName]
Assigns a name to the device (e.g., 'gateway1.com'). Ensure that
the name you choose is the one with which the Proxy is configured
to identify the device.
Note: If specified, the device name is used as the host part of the
SIP URI in the From header. If not specified, the device's IP
address is used instead (default).
Gateway Registration Name
[GWRegistrationName]
Defines the user name that is used in the From and To headers in
REGISTER messages. If no value is specified (default) for this
parameter, the UserName parameter is used instead.
Note: This parameter is applicable only for single registration per
device (i.e., AuthenticationMode is set to 1). When the device
registers each channel separately (i.e., AuthenticationMode is set
to 0), the user name is set to the channel's phone number.
DNS Query Type
[DNSQueryType]
Enables the use of DNS Naming Authority Pointer (NAPTR) and
Service Record (SRV) queries to resolve Proxy and Registrar
servers and to resolve all domain names that appear in the Contact
and Record-Route headers.
ƒ
[0] A-Record = A-Record (default)
ƒ
[1] SRV = SRV
ƒ
[2] NAPTR = NAPTR
If set to A-Record [0], no NAPTR or SRV queries are performed.
If set to SRV [1] and the Proxy / Registrar IP address parameter,
Contact / Record-Route headers, or IP address defined in the
Routing tables contains a domain name, an SRV query is
performed. The device uses the first host name received from the
SRV query. The device then performs a DNS A-record query for
the host name to locate an IP address.
If set to NAPTR [2], an NAPTR query is performed. If it is
successful, an SRV query is sent according to the information
received in the NAPTR response. If the NAPTR query fails, an
SRV query is performed according to the configured transport type.
If the Proxy / Registrar IP address parameter, the domain name in
the Contact / Record-Route headers, or the IP address defined in
the Routing tables contains a domain name with port definition, the
device performs a regular DNS A-record query.
If a specific Transport Type is defined, a NAPTR query is not
performed.
Note: To enable NAPTR/SRV queries for Proxy servers only, use
the parameter ProxyDNSQueryType.
Proxy DNS Query Type
[ProxyDNSQueryType]
Enables the use of DNS Naming Authority Pointer (NAPTR) and
Service Record (SRV) queries to discover Proxy servers.
ƒ
[0] A-Record = A-Record (default)
ƒ
[1] SRV = SRV
ƒ
[2] NAPTR = NAPTR
If set to A-Record [0], no NAPTR or SRV queries are performed.
If set to SRV [1] and the Proxy IP address parameter contains a
domain name without port definition (e.g., ProxyIP = domain.com),
SIP User's Manual

3. Web-Based Management
Parameter
Description
an SRV query is performed. The SRV query returns up to four
Proxy host names and their weights. The device then performs
DNS A-record queries for each Proxy host name (according to the
received weights) to locate up to four Proxy IP addresses.
Therefore, if the first SRV query returns two domain names, and
the A-record queries return two IP addresses each, no additional
searches are performed.
If set to NAPTR [2], an NAPTR query is performed. If it is
successful, an SRV query is sent according to the information
received in the NAPTR response. If the NAPTR query fails, an
SRV query is performed according to the configured transport type.
If the Proxy IP address parameter contains a domain name with
port definition (e.g., ProxyIP = domain.com:5080), the device
performs a regular DNS A-record query.
If a specific Transport Type is defined, a NAPTR query is not
performed.
Note: When enabled, NAPTR/SRV queries are used to discover
Proxy servers even if the parameter DNSQueryType is disabled.
Number of RTX Before HotSwap
[HotSwapRtx]
Number of retransmitted INVITE/REGISTER messages before the
call is routed (hot swap) to another Proxy/Registrar.
The valid range is 1 to 30. The default value is 3.
Note: This parameter is also used for alternative routing using the
'Tel to IP Routing' table (or 'Outbound IP Routing' table if
EnableSBC is set to 1). If a domain name in the table is resolved
into two IP addresses, and if there is no response for HotSwapRtx
retransmissions to the INVITE message that is sent to the first IP
address, the device immediately initiates a call to the second IP
address.
Use Gateway Name for
OPTIONS
[UseGatewayNameForOption
s]
Determines whether the device uses its IP address or gateway
name in keep-alive SIP OPTIONS messages.
ƒ
[0] No = Use the device's IP address in keep-alive OPTIONS
messages (default).
ƒ
[1] Yes = Use 'Gateway Name' (SIPGatewayName) in keepalive OPTIONS messages.
The OPTIONS Request-URI host part contains either the device's
IP address or a string defined by the parameter SIPGatewayName.
The device uses the OPTIONS request as a keep-alive message to
its primary and redundant Proxies (i.e., the parameter
EnableProxyKeepAlive is set to 1).
User Name
[UserName]
User name used for Registration and Basic/Digest authentication
with a Proxy / Registrar server.
The parameter doesn't have a default value (empty string).
Note: Applicable only if single device registration is used (i.e.,
Authentication Mode is set to Authentication Per gateway).
Password
[Password]
Version 5.6
The password used for Basic/Digest authentication with a Proxy /
Registrar server. A single password is used for all device ports.
The default is 'Default_Passwd'.
139
November 2008
Mediant 2000
Parameter
Description
Cnonce
[Cnonce]
Cnonce string used by the SIP server and client to provide mutual
authentication. (Free format, i.e., 'Cnonce = 0a4f113b'). The default
is 'Default_Cnonce'.
Authentication Mode
[AuthenticationMode]
Determines the device's registration and authentication method.
ƒ
[0] Per Endpoint = Registration and Authentication separately
for each B-channel.
ƒ
[1] Per Gateway = Single Registration and Authentication for
the entire device (default).
Single Registration and Authentication (Authentication Mode = 1) is
usually defined for and digital modules.
Set Out-Of-Service On
Registration Failure
[OOSOnRegistrationFail]
Enables setting a , trunk, or the entire device (i.e., all endpoints) to
out-of-service if registration fails.
ƒ
[0] Disable = Disabled (default).
ƒ
[1] Enable = Enabled.
If the registration is per Endpoint (i.e., AuthenticationMode is set to
0) or Account (refer to ''Configuring the Trunk Group Settings'' on
page 197) and a specific endpoint/Account registration fails (SIP
4xx or no response), then that endpoint is set to out-of-service until
a success response is received in a subsequent registration
request. When the registration is per the entire device (i.e.,
AuthenticationMode is set to 1) and registration fails, all endpoints
are set to out-of-service. If all the Accounts of a specific Trunk
Group fail registration and if the Trunk Group comprises a
complete trunk, then the trunk is set to out-of-service.
Challenge Caching Mode
[SIPChallengeCachingMode]
Determines the mode for Challenge Caching, which reduces the
number of SIP messages transmitted through the network. The first
request to the Proxy is sent without authorization. The Proxy sends
a 401/407 response with a challenge. This response is saved for
further uses. A new request is resent with the appropriate
credentials. Subsequent requests to the Proxy are automatically
sent with credentials (calculated from the saved challenge). If the
Proxy doesn't accept the new request and sends another
challenge, the old challenge is replaced with the new one.
ƒ
[0] None = Challenges are not cached. Every new request is
sent without preliminary authorization. If the request is
challenged, a new request with authorization data is sent
(default)
ƒ
[1] INVITE Only = Challenges issued for INVITE requests are
cached. This prevents a mixture of REGISTER and INVITE
authorizations.
ƒ
[2] Full = Caches all challenges from the proxies.
Note: Challenge Caching is used with all proxies and not only with
the active one.
Mutual Authentication Mode
[MutualAuthenticationMode]
SIP User's Manual
Determines the device's mode of operation when Authentication
and Key Agreement (AKA) Digest Authentication is used.
ƒ
[0] Optional = Incoming requests that don't include AKA
authentication information are accepted (default).
ƒ
[1] Mandatory = Incoming requests that don't include AKA
authentication information are rejected.

3. Web-Based Management
3.4.7.1.3 Proxy Sets Table
The 'Proxy Sets Table' page allows you to define Proxy Sets. A Proxy Set is a group of
Proxy servers defined by IP address or fully qualified domain name (FQDN). You can
define up to six Proxy Sets, each having a unique ID number and each containing up to five
Proxy server addresses. For each Proxy server address, you can define the transport type
(i.e., UDP, TCP, or TLS). In addition, Proxy load balancing and redundancy mechanisms
can be applied per Proxy Set (if a Proxy Set contains more than one Proxy address).
Proxy Sets can later be assigned to IP Groups of type SERVER only (refer to ''Configuring
the IP Groups'' on page 201). When the device sends an INVITE message to an IP Group,
it is sent to the IP address/domain name defined for the Proxy Set that is associated with
the specific IP Group. In other words, the Proxy Set represents the destination of the call.
Typically, for IP-to-IP call routing, at least two Proxy Sets are defined for call destination –
one for each leg (IP Group) of the call (i.e., both directions). For example, one Proxy Set for
the Internet Telephony Service provider (ITSP) interfacing with one 'leg' of the device and
another Proxy Set for the second SIP entity (e.g., ITSP) interfacing with the other 'leg' of the
device.
Note: You can also configure the Proxy Sets table using the ini file table parameters
ProxyIP and ProxySet (refer to ''SIP Configuration Parameters'' on page 284).
¾ To add Proxy servers and configure Proxy parameters, take these
5 steps:
1.
Open the 'Proxy Sets Table' page (Configuration tab > Protocol Configuration
menu > Protocol Definition submenu > Proxy Sets Table page item).
Figure 3-61: Proxy Sets Table Page
2.
From the Proxy Set ID drop-down list, select an ID for the desired group.
3.
Configure the Proxy parameters according to the following table.

Table 3-32: Proxy Sets Table Parameters
Parameter
Proxy Set ID
Description
The Proxy Set identification number.
The valid range is 0 to 5 (i.e., up to 6 Proxy Set ID's can be
configured). The Proxy Set ID #0 is used as the default Proxy Set,
and if defined is backward compatible to the list of Proxies from
earlier releases.
Note: Although not recommended, you can use both default Proxy
Set (ID #0) and IP Groups for call routing. For example, on the
'Trunk Group Settings' page (refer to ''Configuring the Trunk Group
Settings'' on page 197), you can configure a Serving IP Group to
where you want to route specific Trunk Group's channels, while all
other device channels use the default Proxy Set. At the same, you
can also use IP Groups in the 'Tel to IP Routing' table (refer to ''Tel
to IP Routing Table'' on page 175) or 'Outbound IP Routing' table if
EnableSBC is set to 1 (refer to “Outbound IP Routing Table” on
page 178) to configure the default Proxy Set if the parameter
PreferRouteTable is set to 1.
To summarize, if the default Proxy Set is used, the INVITE
message is sent according to the following preferences:
ƒ
To the Trunk Group's Serving IP Group ID, as defined in the
'Trunk Group Settings' table.
ƒ
According to the 'Tel to IP Routing' table (or 'Outbound IP
Routing' table if EnableSBC is set to 1), if the parameter
PreferRouteTable is set to 1.
ƒ
To the default Proxy.
Typically, when IP Groups are used, there is no need to use the
default Proxy, and all routing and registration rules can be
configured using IP Groups and the Account tables (refer to
''Configuring the Account Table'' on page 204).
Proxy Address
SIP User's Manual
The IP address (and optionally port number) of the Proxy server.
Up to five IP addresses can be configured per Proxy Set. Enter the
IP address as an FQDN or in dotted-decimal notation (e.g.,
201.10.8.1). You can also specify the selected port in the format:
<IP address>:<port>.
If you enable Proxy Redundancy (by setting the parameter
EnableProxyKeepAlive to 1 or 2), the device can operate with
multiple Proxy servers. If there is no response from the first
(primary) Proxy defined in the list, the device attempts to
communicate with the other (redundant) Proxies in the list. When a
redundant Proxy is located, the device either continues operating
with it until the next failure occurs, or reverts to the primary Proxy
(refer to the parameter ProxyRedundancyMode). If none of the
Proxy servers respond, the device goes over the list again.
The device also provides real-time switching (Hot-Swap mode)
between the primary and redundant proxies (refer to the parameter
IsProxyHotSwap). If the first Proxy doesn't respond to the INVITE
message, the same INVITE message is immediately sent to the
next Proxy in the list. The same logic applies to REGISTER
messages (if RegistrarIP is not defined).

Parameter
Description
Notes:
Transport Type
ƒ
If EnableProxyKeepAlive is set to 1 or 2, the device monitors
the connection with the Proxies by using keep-alive messages
(OPTIONS or REGISTER).
ƒ
To use Proxy Redundancy, you must specify one or more
redundant Proxies.
ƒ
When a port number is specified (e.g., domain.com:5080), DNS
NAPTR/SRV queries aren't performed, even if
ProxyDNSQueryType is set to 1 or 2.
The transport type per Proxy server.
ƒ
[0] UDP
ƒ
[1] TCP
ƒ
[2] TLS
ƒ
[-1] = Undefined
Note: If no transport type is selected, the value of the global
parameter SIPTransportType is used (refer to ''SIP General
Parameters'' on page 121).
Proxy Load Balancing Method
[ProxyLoadBalancingMethod]
Enables the Proxy Load Balancing mechanism per Proxy Set ID.
ƒ
[0] Disable = Load Balancing is disabled (default).
ƒ
[1] Round Robin = Round Robin.
ƒ
[2] Random Weights = Random Weights.
When the Round Robin algorithm is used, a list of all possible
Proxy IP addresses is compiled. This list includes all IP addresses
per Proxy Set, after necessary DNS resolutions (including NAPTR
and SRV, if configured). After this list is compiled, the Proxy KeepAlive mechanism (according to parameters EnableProxyKeepAlive
and ProxyKeepAliveTime) tags each entry as 'offline' or 'online'.
Load balancing is only performed on Proxy servers that are tagged
as 'online'.
All outgoing messages are equally distributed across the list of IP
addresses. REGISTER messages are also distributed unless a
RegistrarIP is configured.
The IP addresses list is refreshed according to
ProxyIPListRefreshTime. If a change in the order of the entries in
the list occurs, all load statistics are erased and balancing starts
over again.
When the Random Weights algorithm is used, the outgoing
requests are not distributed equally among the Proxies. The
weights are received from the DNS server by using SRV records.
The device sends the requests in such a fashion that each Proxy
receives a percentage of the requests according to its' assigned
weight. A single FQDN should be configured as a Proxy IP
address. The Random Weights Load Balancing is not used in the
following scenarios:
Version 5.6
ƒ
The Proxy Set includes more than one Proxy IP address.
ƒ
The only Proxy defined is an IP address and not an FQDN.
ƒ
SRV is not enabled (DNSQueryType).
ƒ
The SRV response includes several records with a different
Priority value.

Parameter
Enable Proxy Keep Alive
[EnableProxyKeepAlive]
Description
Determines whether Keep-Alive with the Proxy is enabled or
disabled. This parameter is configured per Proxy Set.
ƒ
[0] Disable = Disable (default).
ƒ
[1] Using OPTIONS = Enables Keep-Alive with Proxy using
OPTIONS.
ƒ
[2] Using REGISTER = Enable Keep-Alive with Proxy using
REGISTER.
If set to 'Using OPTIONS', the SIP OPTIONS message is sent
every user-defined interval, as configured by the parameter
ProxyKeepAliveTime. If set to 'Using REGISTER', the SIP
REGISTER message is sent every user-defined interval, as
configured by the parameter RegistrationTime. Any response from
the Proxy, either success (200 OK) or failure (4xx response) is
considered as if the Proxy is communicating correctly.
Notes:
Proxy Keep Alive Time
[ProxyKeepAliveTime]
ƒ
For Survivability mode for USER-type IP Groups, this
parameter must be enabled (1 or 2).
ƒ
This parameter must be set to 'Using OPTIONS' when Proxy
redundancy is used.
ƒ
When this parameter is set to 'Using REGISTER', the homing
redundancy mode is disabled.
ƒ
When the active proxy doesn't respond to INVITE messages
sent by the device, the proxy is tagged as 'offline'. The behavior
is similar to a Keep-Alive (OPTIONS or REGISTER) failure.
Defines the Proxy keep-alive time interval (in seconds) between
Keep-Alive messages. This parameter is configured per Proxy Set.
The valid range is 5 to 2,000,000. The default value is 60.
Note: This parameter is applicable only if the parameter
EnableProxyKeepAlive is set to 1 (OPTIONS). When the
parameter EnableProxyKeepAlive is set to 2 (REGISTER), the
time interval between Keep-Alive messages is determined by the
parameter RegistrationTime.
Is Proxy Hot-Swap
[IsProxyHotSwap]
Enables the Proxy Hot-Swap redundancy mode per Proxy Set.
ƒ
[0] No = Disabled (default).
ƒ
[1] Yes = Proxy Hot-Swap mode is enabled.
If Proxy Hot-Swap is enabled, the SIP INVITE/REGISTER
message is initially sent to the first Proxy/Registrar server. If there
is no response from the first Proxy/Registrar server after a specific
number of retransmissions (configured by the parameter
HotSwapRtx), the INVITE/REGISTER message is resent to the
next redundant Proxy/Registrar server.
3.4.7.1.4 Coders
The 'Coders' page allows you to configure up to five coders (and their attributes) for the
device. The first coder in the list is the highest priority coder and is used by the device
whenever possible. If the far-end device cannot use the first coder, the device attempts to
use the next coder in the list, and so forth.

Parameter
Description
ƒ
[3] Yes = Declare RFC 2833 telephony-event parameter in SDP
(default).
The device is designed to always be receptive to RFC 2833 DTMF
relay packets. Therefore, it is always correct to include the 'telephonyevent' parameter as default in the SDP. However, some devices use
the absence of the 'telephony-event' in the SDP to decide to send
DTMF digits in-band using G.711 coder. If this is the case, you can set
RxDTMFOption to 0.
1st to 5th Tx DTMF Option
[TxDTMFOption]
Determines a single or several preferred transmit DTMF negotiation
methods.
ƒ
[0] Not Supported = No negotiation - DTMF digits are sent
according to the parameters DTMFTransportType and
RFC2833PayloadType (default).
ƒ
[1] INFO (Nortel) = Sends DTMF digits according to IETF <draftchoudhuri-sip-info-digit-00>.
ƒ
[2] NOTIFY = Sends DTMF digits according to <draft-mahysipping-signaled-digits-01>.
ƒ
[3] INFO (Cisco) = Sends DTMF digits according to Cisco format.
ƒ
[4] RFC 2833.
ƒ
[5] INFO (Korea) = Sends DTMF digits according to Korea
Telecom format.
Notes:
Version 5.6
ƒ
DTMF negotiation methods are prioritized according to the order of
their appearance.
ƒ
When out-of-band DTMF transfer is used ([1], [2], [3], or [5]), the
parameter DTMFTransportType is automatically set to 0 (DTMF
digits are erased from the RTP stream).
ƒ
When RFC 2833 (4) is selected, the device:
1) Negotiates RFC 2833 Payload Type (PT) using local and remote
SDPs.
2) Sends DTMF packets using RFC 2833 PT according to the PT in
the received SDP.
3) Expects to receive RFC 2833 packets with the same PT as
configured by the parameter RFC2833PayloadType.
4) Sends DTMF digits in transparent mode (as part of the voice
stream).
ƒ
When TxDTMFOption is set to 0, the RFC 2833 PT is set according
to the parameter RFC2833PayloadType for both transmit and
receive.
ƒ
The ini file table parameter TxDTMFOption can be repeated 5
times for configuring the DTMF transmit methods.

Parameter
RFC 2833 Payload Type
[RFC2833PayloadType]
Description
The RFC 2833 DTMF relay dynamic payload type.
The valid range is 96 to 99, and 106 to 127. The default is 96. The
100, 102 to 105 range is allocated for proprietary usage.
Notes:
Hook-Flash Option
[HookFlashOption]
ƒ
Certain vendors (e.g., Cisco) use payload type 101 for RFC 2833.
ƒ
When RFC 2833 payload type (PT) negotiation is used (the
parameter TxDTMFOption is set to 4), this payload type is used for
the received DTMF packets. If negotiation isn't used, this payload
type is used for receive and for transmit.
Determines the supported hook-flash Transport Type (i.e., method by
which hook-flash is sent and received).
ƒ
[0] Not Supported = Hook-Flash indication isn't sent (default).
ƒ
[1] INFO = Send proprietary INFO message with Hook-Flash
indication.
ƒ
[4] RFC 2833
ƒ
[5] INFO (Lucent) = Send proprietary INFO message with HookFlash indication.
Notes:
Digit Mapping Rules
[DigitMapping]
ƒ
The RFC 2833 (4) option is currently not supported.
ƒ
The DTMF HookFlashCode is send to IP according to the
parameter HookFlashOption.
Digit map pattern (used to reduce the dialing period when Overlap
dialing is used). If the digit string (i.e., dialed number) matches one of
the patterns in the digit map, the device stops collecting digits and
establishes a call with the collected number.
The digit map pattern can contain up to 52 options, each separated by
a vertical bar (|). The maximum length of the entire digit pattern is 152
characters.
Available notations:
ƒ
[n-m]: Range of numbers (not letters).
ƒ
. (single dot): Repeat digits until next notation (e.g., T).
ƒ
x: Any single digit.
ƒ
T: Dial timeout (configured by the parameter TimeBetweenDigits).
ƒ
S: Immediately applies a specific rule that is part of a general rule.
For example, if your digit map includes a general rule 'x.T' and a
specific rule '11x', for the specific rule to take precedence over the
general rule, append 'S' to the specific rule (i.e., '11xS').
An example of a digit map is shown below:
11xS|00T|[1-7]xxx|8xxxxxxx|#xxxxxxx|*xx|91xxxxxxxxxx|9011x.T
In the example above, the last rule can apply to International numbers
- 9 for dialing tone, 011 Country Code, and then any number of digits
for the local number ('x.').
Note: For PRI interfaces, the digitmap mechanism is applicable only
when ISDN Overlap dialing is used (ISDNRxOverlap is set to 1).
Dial Tone Duration [sec]
[TimeForDialTone]
SIP User's Manual
Duration (in seconds) that the dial tone is played to an ISDN terminal.
This parameter is applicable for overlap dialing when
ISDNInCallsBehavior = 65536. The dial tone is played if the ISDN
SETUP message doesn't include the called number.
The valid range is 0 to 60. The default is 5.

Parameter
Description
General
IP Security
[SecureCallsFromIP]
Determines whether the device accepts SIP calls received from only IP
addresses defined in the 'Tel to IP Routing' table (refer to ''Tel to IP
Routing Table'' on page 175) or 'Outbound IP Routing' table if
EnableSBC is set to 1 (refer to “Outbound IP Routing Table” on page
178). This is useful in preventing unwanted SIP calls or messages
and/or VoIP spam.
ƒ
[0] Disable = device accepts all SIP calls (default).
ƒ
[1] Enable = device accepts SIP calls only from IP addresses
defined in the 'Tel to IP Routing' table (or 'Outbound IP Routing'
table). The device rejects all calls from unknown IP addresses.
Note: Specifying the IP address of a Proxy server in the 'Tel to IP
Routing' table (or 'Outbound IP Routing' table) enables the device to
accept only calls originating from the Proxy server while rejecting all
other calls that don’t appear in this table.
Filter Calls to IP
[FilterCalls2IP]
Enables filtering of Tel-to-IP calls when a Proxy is used (i.e.,
IsProxyUsed parameter is set to 1 -- refer to ''Proxy & Registration
Parameters'' on page 132).
ƒ
[0] Don't Filter = device doesn't filter calls when using a Proxy.
(default)
ƒ
[1] Filter = Filtering is enabled.
When this parameter is enabled and a Proxy is used, the device first
checks the 'Tel-to-IP Routing' table or 'Outbound IP Routing' table
before making a call through the Proxy. If the number is not allowed
(i.e., number isn't listed in the table or a call restriction routing rule of IP
address 0.0.0.0 is applied), the call is released.
Note: When no Proxy is used, this parameter must be disabled and
filtering is according to the 'Tel-to-IP Routing' table (or 'Outbound IP
Routing' table).
Enable Digit Delivery to IP
[EnableDigitDelivery2IP]
The Digit Delivery feature enables sending DTMF digits to the
destination IP address after the Tel-to-IP call is answered.
ƒ
[0] Disable = Disabled (default).
ƒ
[1] Enable = Enable digit delivery to IP.
To enable this feature, modify the called number to include at least one
'p' character. The device uses the digits before the 'p' character in the
initial INVITE message. After the call is answered, the device waits for
the required time (number of 'p' multiplied by 1.5 seconds) and then
sends the rest of the DTMF digits using the method chosen (in-band or
out-of-band).
Note: The called number can include several 'p' characters (1.5
seconds pause), for example, 1001pp699, 8888p9p300.
Enable Digit Delivery to
Tel
[EnableDigitDelivery]
Version 5.6
Enables the Digit Delivery feature, which sends DTMF digits (of the
called number) to the device's B-channel (phone line) after the call is
answered [line offhooked (FXS) or seized (FXO)] for IP-to-Tel calls.
ƒ
[0] Disable = Disabled (default).
ƒ
[1] Enable = Enable Digit Delivery feature for the device (two-stage
dialing).
153
November 2008
Mediant 2000
Parameter
Description
If the called number in IP-to-Tel call includes the characters 'w' or 'p',
the device places a call with the first part of the called number (before
'w' or 'p') , and plays DTMF digits after the call is answered. If the
character 'w' is used, the device waits for detection of dial tone before it
starts playing DTMF digits. For example, if the called number is
'1007766p100', the device places a call with 1007766 as the destination
number, then after the call is answered, it waits 1.5 seconds ('p') and
plays the rest of the number (100) as DTMF digits.
Additional examples: 1664wpp102, 66644ppp503, and
7774w100pp200.
RTP Only Mode
[RTPOnlyMode]
Enables the device to start sending and/or receiving RTP packets to
and from remote endpoints without the need to establish a Control
session. The remote IP address is determined according to the 'Tel to
IP Routing' table (refer to ''Tel to IP Routing Table'' on page 175) or
'Outbound IP Routing' table (refer to “Outbound IP Routing Table” on
page 178). The port is the same port as the local RTP port (set by
BaseUDPPort and the channel on which the call is received).
ƒ
[0] Disable = Disable (default).
ƒ
[1] Transmit & Receive = Send and receive RTP.
ƒ
[2] Transmit Only= Send RTP only.
ƒ
[3] Receive Only= Receive RTP only.
Notes:
PSTN Alert Timeout
[PSTNAlertTimeout]
ƒ
To configure the RTP Only mode per trunk, use the
RTPOnlyModeForTrunk_ID (refer to “Configuring the Trunk Settings”
on page 82).
ƒ
If per trunk configuration (using RTPOnlyModeForTrunk) is set to
other than default, the RTPOnlyMode parameter value is overridden.
Alert Timeout (in seconds) (ISDN T301 timer) for calls to PSTN. This
timer is used between the time a SETUP message is sent to the Tel
side (IP-to-Tel call establishment) and a CONNECT message is
received. If an ALERTING message is received, the timer is restarted.
The default is 180 seconds. The range is 1 to 600.
Note: If per trunk configuration (using TrunkPSTNAlertTimeout) is set to
other than default (refer to “Configuring the Trunk Settings” on page 82),
the PSTNAlertTimeout parameter value is overridden.
Reanswer Time
[RegretTime]
Determines the time period the device waits for an MFC R2 Resume
(Reanswer) signal once a Suspend (Clear back) signal is received from
the PBX. If this timer expires, the call is released.
Note: Applicable only for MFC R2 CAS Brazil variant.
The valid range is 0 to 255 (in seconds). The default value is 0.
Disconnect and Answer Supervision
Send Digit Pattern on
Connect
[TelConnectCode]
Defines a digit pattern to send to the Tel side after SIP 200 OK is
received from the IP side. The digit pattern is a pre-defined DTMF
sequence that is used to indicate an answer signal (e.g., for billing).
The valid range is 1 to 8 characters.
Note: This parameter is applicable to FXO and CAS.

ƒ
[1] Yes (default)
Notes:
Broken Connection
Timeout
[BrokenConnectionEven
tTimeout]
ƒ
The timeout is set by the parameter
BrokenConnectionEventTimeout.
ƒ
This feature is applicable only if the RTP session is used without
Silence Compression. If Silence Compression is enabled, the device
doesn't detect a broken RTP connection.
ƒ
During a call, if the source IP address (from where the RTP packets
are sent) is changed without notifying the device, the device filters
these RTP packets. To overcome this, set
DisconnectOnBrokenConnection to 0; the device doesn't detect RTP
packets arriving from the original source IP address and switches
(after 300 msec) to the RTP packets arriving from the new source IP
address.
The time period (in 100 msec units) that an RTP packet is not received
after which a call is disconnected.
The valid range is 1 to 1,000. The default value is 100 (i.e., 10
seconds).
Notes:
Disconnect Call on Silence

Description
manipulation mechanism is used to remove the 'FAX' prefix, if required.
If the initial INVITE used to establish the voice call (not fax) was already
sent, a CANCEL (if not connected yet) or a BYE (if already connected)
is sent to tear down the voice call.
Notes:
ƒ
To enable this feature, set CNGDetectorMode to 2, and IsFaxUsed
to 1, 2, or 3.
ƒ
The 'FAX' prefix in routing and manipulation tables is case sensitive.
CDR and Debug
CDR Server IP Address
[CDRSyslogServerIP]
Defines the destination IP address to where CDR logs are sent.
The default value is a null string, which causes CDR messages to be
sent with all Syslog messages to the Syslog server.
Note: The CDR messages are sent to UDP port 514 (default Syslog
port).
CDR Report Level
[CDRReportLevel]
Determines whether Call Detail Records (CDR) are sent to the Syslog
server and when they are sent.
ƒ
[0] None = CDRs are not used (default).
ƒ
[1] End Call = CDR is sent to the Syslog server at the end of each
call.
ƒ
[2] Start & End Call = CDR report is sent to Syslog at the start and
end of each call.
ƒ
[3] Connect & End Call = CDR report is sent to Syslog at connection
and at the end of each call.
ƒ
[4] Start & Connect & End Call = CDR report is sent to Syslog at the
start, at connection, and at the end of each call.
The CDR Syslog message complies with RFC 3161 and is identified by:

Parameter
Description
it sends a 183 Session Progress message with SDP in response to
only the first received ISDN Proceeding or Progress message after a
call is placed to PBX/PSTN over the trunk.
Enable X-Channel Header
[XChannelHeader]
Determines whether the x-channel header is added to SIP messages
for trunk / B-channel information.
ƒ
[0] Disable = x-channel header is not used (default).
ƒ
[1] Enable = x-channel header is generated with trunk/B-channel
and IP address information.
The header provides information on the E1/T1 physical trunk/B-channel
on which the call is received or placed. For example, 'x-channel:
DS/DS1-5/22;IP=192.168.13.1', where 'DS/DS-1' is a constant string, '5'
is the trunk number, '22' is the B-channel, and in addition, the device's
IP address is added to the header. This header is generated by the
device and is sent in INVITE messages and 183/180/200OK responses.
Enable Busy Out
[EnableBusyOut]
Determines whether the Busy Out feature is enabled.
ƒ
[0] Disable = 'Busy out' feature is not used (default).
ƒ
[1] Enable = 'Busy out' feature is enabled.
When Busy Out is enabled and certain scenarios exist, the device
performs the following:
All E1/T1 trunks are automatically taken out of service by taking down
the D-Channel or by sending a Service Out message for T1 PRI trunks
supporting these messages (NI-2, 4/5-ESS, DMS-100, and Meridian).
These behaviors are performed due to one of the following scenarios:
ƒ
Physically disconnected from the network (i.e., Ethernet cable is
disconnected).
ƒ
The Ethernet cable is connected, but the device can't communicate
with any host. Note that LAN Watch-Dog must be activated
(EnableLANWatchDog = 1).
ƒ
The device can't communicate with the proxy (according to the Proxy
keep-alive mechanism) and no other alternative exists to send the
call.
ƒ
The IP Connectivity mechanism is enabled (using
AltRoutingTel2IPEnable) and there is no connectivity to any
destination IP address.
Note: The Busy Out behavior varies between different protocol types.
Default Release Cause
[DefaultReleaseCause]
Defines the default Release Cause (sent to IP) for IP-to-Tel calls when
the device initiates a call release and an explicit matching cause for this
release isn't found.
The default release cause is NO_ROUTE_TO_DESTINATION (3).
Other common values include NO_CIRCUIT_AVAILABLE (34),
DESTINATION_OUT_OF_ORDER (27), etc.
Notes:
Version 5.6
ƒ
The default release cause is described in the Q.931 notation and is
translated to corresponding SIP 40x or 50x values (e.g., 3 to SIP 404
and 34 to SIP 503).
ƒ
When the Trunk is disconnected or is not synchronized, the internal
cause is 27. This cause is mapped, by default, to SIP 502.
ƒ
For mapping SIP-to-Q.931 and Q.931-to-SIP release causes, refer to

ƒ
For a list of SIP responses-Q.931 release cause mapping, refer to
''Release Cause Mapping'' on page 189.
Delay After Reset [sec]
[GWAppDelayTime]
Defines the time interval (in seconds) that the device's operation is
delayed after a reset.
The valid range is 0 to 45. The default value is 7 seconds.
Note: This feature helps to overcome connection problems caused by
some LAN routers or IP configuration parameters' modifications by a
DHCP server.
Max Number of Active
Calls
[MaxActiveCalls]
Defines the maximum number of simultaneous active calls supported by
the device. If the maximum number of calls is reached, new calls are not
established.
The default value is the maximum available channels (no restriction on
the maximum number of calls). The valid range is 1 to 240.
Max Call Duration (min)
[MaxCallDuration]
Defines the maximum call duration (in minutes). If this time expires, both
sides of the call are released (IP and Tel).
The valid range is 0 to 35,791. The default is 0 (i.e., no limitation).
Enable LAN Watchdog
[EnableLanWatchDog]
Determines whether the LAN Watch-Dog feature is enabled.
ƒ
[0] Disable = Disable LAN Watch-Dog (default).
ƒ
[1] Enable = Enable LAN Watch-Dog.
When LAN Watch-Dog is enabled, the device's overall communication
integrity is checked periodically. If no communication for about 3
minutes is detected, the device performs a self test.
If the self test succeeds, the problem is logical link down (i.e., Ethernet
cable disconnected on the switch side), and the Busy Out mechanism is
activated if enabled (EnableBusyOut = 1).
If the self test fails, the device restarts to overcome internal fatal
communication error.
Note: Enable LAN Watchdog is relevant only if the Ethernet connection
is full duplex.
Enable User-Information
Usage
[EnableUserInfoUsage]
First Call Ringback Tone
ID
[FirstCallRBTId]
Enables or disables usage of the User Information loaded to the device
in the User Information auxiliary file. (For a description on User
Information, refer to ''Loading Auxiliary Files'' on page 231.)
ƒ
[0] Disable = Disabled (default).
ƒ
[1] Enable = Enabled.
Determines the index of the first Ringback Tone in the CPT file. This
option enables an Application server to request the device to play a
distinctive Ringback tone to the calling party according to the
destination of the call. The tone is played according to the Alert-Info
header received in the 180 Ringing SIP response (the value of the AlertInfo header is added to the value of this parameter).
The valid range is -1 to 1,000. The default value is -1 (i.e., play standard
Ringback tone).
Notes:
SIP User's Manual
ƒ
It is assumed that all Ringback Tones are defined in sequence in the
CPT file.
ƒ
In case of an MLPP call, the device uses the value of this parameter
plus 1 as the index of the Ringback tone in the CPT file (e.g., if this
value is set to 1, then the index is 2, i.e., 1 + 1).

3.4.7.2.3 Stand-Alone Survivability
The 'SAS Configuration' page allows you to configure the device's Stand-Alone Survivability
(SAS) feature. This feature is useful for providing a local backup via the PSTN in Small or
Medium Enterprises (SME) that are serviced by IP Centrex services. In such environments,
the enterprise's incoming and outgoing telephone calls (external and internal) are controlled
by the Proxy, which communicates with the enterprise through the WAN interface. SAS
ensures that incoming, outgoing, and internal calls service is maintained in case of a WAN
or Proxy failure, using a PSTN (or an alternate VoIP) backup connection and the device's
built-in internal routing. To utilize the SAS feature, the VoIP CPEs such as IP phones or
residential gateways need to be defined so that their Proxy and Registrar destination
addresses and UDP port equal the SAS feature's IP address and SAS local SIP UDP port.
Notes:
Version 5.6
•
The 'SAS Configuration' page is Feature Key dependant and therefore is
available only if included in the device's Feature Key (refer to “Upgrading
the Software Upgrade Key” on page 233).

Parameter
Enable SAS
[EnableSAS]
Description
Enables the Stand-Alone Survivability (SAS) feature.
ƒ
[0] Disable Disabled (default)
ƒ
[1] Enable = SAS is enabled
When enabled, the device receives the registration requests from
different SIP entities in the local network and then forwards them to the
defined proxy. If the connection to the proxy fails ('Emergency Mode'),
the device serves as a proxy by allowing calls internal to the local
network or outgoing to PSTN.
SAS Local SIP UDP Port
[SASLocalSIPUDPPort]
Local UDP port for sending and receiving SIP messages for SAS. The
SIP entities in the local network need to send the registration requests
to this port. When forwarding the requests to the proxy ('Normal
Mode'), this port serves as the source port.
The valid range is 1 to 65,534. The default value is 5080.
SAS Default Gateway IP
[SASDefaultGatewayIP]
The default gateway used in SAS 'Emergency Mode'. When an
incoming SIP INVITE is received and the destination Address-OfRecord is not included in the SAS database, the request is
immediately sent to this default gateway.
The address can be configured as an IP address (dotted-decimal
notation) or as a domain name (up to 49 characters). The default is a
null string, which is interpreted as the local IP address of the gateway.

OK response to an incoming REGISTER message when in SAS
'Emergency Mode'.
The valid range is 10 to 2,000,000. The default value is 20.
Short Number Length
[SASShortNumberLength]
This parameter is obsolete; instead, use the parameter
SASRegistrationManipulation.
SAS Local SIP TCP Port
[SASLocalSIPTCPPort]
Local TCP port used to send/receive SIP messages for the SAS
application. The SIP entities in the local network need to send the
registration requests to this port. When forwarding the requests to the
proxy ('Normal Mode'), this port serves as the source port.
The valid range is 1 to 65,534. The default value is 5080.
SAS Local SIP TLS Port
[SASLocalSIPTLSPort]
Local TLS port used to send/receive SIP messages for the SAS
application. The SIP entities in the local network need to send the
registration requests to this port. When forwarding the requests to the
proxy ('Normal Mode'), this port serves as the source port.
The valid range is 1 to 65,534. The default value is 5081.
SAS Proxy Set
[SASProxySet]
Determines the Proxy Set (index number) used in SAS Normal mode
to forward REGISTER and INVITE requests from the users that are
served by the SAS application.
The valid range is 0 to 5. The default value is 0 (i.e., default Proxy
Set).
Redundant SAS Proxy Set
[RedundantSASProxySet]
Determines the Proxy Set (index number) used in SAS Emergency
mode for fallback when the user is not found in the Registered Users
database. Each time a new SIP request arrives, the SAS application
checks whether the user is listed in the registration database. If the
user is located in the database, the request is sent to the user. If the
user is not found, the request is forwarded to the next redundant SAS
defined in the Redundant SAS Proxy Set. If that SAS Proxy IP appears
in the Via header of the request, it is not forwarded (so that loops are
prevented in the request's course). If no such redundant SAS exists,
the SAS sends the request to its default gateway (configured by the
parameter SASDefaultGatewayIP).
The valid range is -1 to 5. The default value is -1 (i.e., no redundant
Proxy Set).
3.4.7.2.4 SBC Configuration

3.4.7.3
Configuring the Number Manipulation Tables
The device provides four Number Manipulation tables for incoming (IP-to-Tel) and outgoing
(Tel-to-IP) calls. These tables are used to modify the destination and source telephone
numbers so that the calls can be routed correctly. For example, telephone number
manipulation can be implemented for the following:
„
Strip or add dialing plan digits from or to the number. For example, a user may need to
first dial 9 before dialing the phone number to indicate an external line. This number
(9) can then be removed (by the Manipulation table) before the call is setup.
„
Allow or disallow Caller ID information to be sent according to destination or source
prefixes.
„
Assign NPI/TON to IP-to-Tel calls. The device can use a single global setting for
NPI/TON classification or it can use the setting in this table on a call-by-call basis.
The number manipulation is configured in the following tables:
„
For Tel-to-IP calls:
•
Destination Phone Number Manipulation Table for Tel-to-IP Calls
(NumberMapTel2IP ini file parameter)
•
Source Phone Number Manipulation Table for Tel-to-IP Calls
(SourceNumberMapTel2IP ini file parameter)
SIP User's Manual

„
3. Web-Based Management
For IP-to-Tel calls:
•
Destination Phone Number Manipulation Table for IP-to-Tel Calls
(NumberMapIP2Tel ini file parameter)
•
Source Phone Number Manipulation Table for IP-to-Tel Calls
(SourceNumberMapIP2Tel ini file parameter)
Notes:
•
Number manipulation can occur before or after a routing decision is
made. For example, you can route a call to a specific Trunk Group
according to its original number, and then you can remove or add a prefix
to that number before it is routed. To determine when number
manipulation is performed, configure the 'IP to Tel Routing Mode'
parameter (RouteModeIP2Tel) described in ''IP to Trunk Group Routing''
on page 181, and 'Tel to IP Routing Mode' parameter (RouteModeTel2IP)
described in ''Tel to IP Routing Table'' on page 175 (or “Outbound IP
Routing Table” on page 178).
•
For configuring number manipulation using ini file table parameters
NumberMapIP2Tel, NumberMapTel2IP, SourceNumberMapIP2Tel, and
SourceNumberMapTel2IP, refer to ''Number Manipulation and Routing
Parameters'' on page 313.
¾ To configure the Number Manipulation tables, take these 5 steps:
1.
Open the required 'Number Manipulation' page (Configuration tab > Protocol
Configuration menu > Manipulation Tables submenu > Dest Number IP->Tel, Dest
Number Tel->IP, Source Number IP->Tel, or Source Number Tel->IP page item);
the relevant Manipulation table page is displayed (e.g., 'Source Phone Number

3.4.7.3.3 Mapping NPI/TON to Phone-Context
The 'Phone-Context Table' page is used to map NPI and TON to the Phone-Context SIP
parameter. When a call is received from the ISDN, the NPI and TON are compared against
the table and the Phone-Context value is used in the outgoing SIP INVITE message. The
same mapping occurs when an INVITE with a Phone-Context attribute is received. The
Phone-Context parameter appears in the standard SIP headers where a phone number is
used (Request-URI, To, From, Diversion).
¾ To configure the Phone-Context tables, take these 4 steps:
1.
Open the 'Phone Context Table' page (Configuration tab > Protocol Configuration
menu > Manipulation Tables submenu > Phone Context Table page item).

Notes:
•
Several rows with the same NPI-TON or Phone-Context are allowed. In
such a scenario, a Tel-to-IP call uses the first match.
•
Phone-Context '+' is a unique case as it doesn't appear in the RequestURI as a Phone-Context parameter. Instead, it's added as a prefix to the
phone number. The '+' isn't removed from the phone number in the IP-toTel direction.

Number for Tel-to-IP calls.
ƒ
[0] No = Do not change the Called Number (default).
ƒ
[1] Yes = Add NPI and TON to the Called Number of
ISDN Tel-to-IP call.
For example: After receiving a Called Number of 555, NPI of
1 and TON of 3, the modified number becomes 13555. This
number can later be used for manipulation and routing.
IP to Tel Remove Routing Table Prefix
[RemovePrefix]
Determines whether the device removes the prefix from the
destination number for IP-to-Tel calls.
ƒ
[0] No = Don't remove prefix (default)
ƒ
[1] Yes = Remove the prefix (defined in the 'IP to Trunk
Group Routing' table - refer to ''IP to Trunk Group
Routing'' on page 181) from a telephone number for an
IP-to-Tel call, before forwarding it to Tel.
For example: To route an incoming IP-to-Tel call with
destination number 21100, the 'IP to Trunk Group Routing'
table is scanned for a matching prefix. If such a prefix is
found (e.g., 21), then before the call is routed to the
corresponding Trunk Group, the prefix (21) is removed from
the original number, and therefore, only 100 remains.
Notes:
Source IP Address Input
[SourceIPAddressInput]
ƒ
Applicable only if number manipulation is performed after
call routing for IP-to-Tel calls (i.e., RouteModeIP2Tel
parameter is set to 0).
ƒ
Similar operation (of removing the prefix) is also
achieved by using the usual number manipulation rules.
Determines the IP address that the device uses to
determine the source of incoming INVITE messages for IPto-Tel routing.
ƒ
[-1] = Not configured (default).
ƒ
[0] SIP Contact Header = Use the IP address received in
the Contact header of the incoming INVITE message.

3.4.7.4.2 Tel to IP Routing Table
The 'Tel to IP Routing' page provides a table for configuring up to up to 50 routing rules for
Tel-to-IP calls, where Tel calls are routed to destinations based on IP address (or IP
Group).
Note: The 'Tel to IP Routing' page appears only if the parameter EnableSBC is set
to 0 (default) in ''SBC Configuration'' on page 163. If this parameter is
enabled, the 'Outbound IP Routing Table' page appears instead (refer to
''Outbound IP Routing Table'' on page 178 for a description of this page).
This routing table associates called and/or calling telephone number prefixes (originating
from a specific Trunk Group), with a destination IP address (or Fully Qualified Domain
Name - FQDN) or IP Group. When a call is routed by the device (i.e., a Proxy server isn't
used), the called and calling numbers are compared to the list of prefixes in this table. Calls
that match these prefixes are sent to the corresponding IP address. If the number dialed
does not match these prefixes, the call is not made.
When using a Proxy server, you do not need to configure this table unless you require one
of the following:
„
Fallback routing when communication with Proxy servers is lost.
„
Implement the 'Filter Calls to IP' and 'IP Security' features.
„
Obtain different SIP URI host names (per called number).
„
Assign IP profiles.
Note that for this table to take precedence over a Proxy for routing calls, set the parameter
PreferRouteTable to 1. The device checks the 'Destination IP Address' field in this table for
a match with the outgoing call. A Proxy is used only if a match is not found.
Possible uses for Tel-to-IP routing include the following:
„
Fallback to internal routing table if there is no communication with the Proxy servers.
„
Call Restriction (when Proxy isn't used): rejects all outgoing Tel-to-IP calls that are
associated with the destination IP address 0.0.0.0.
„
IP Security: When the IP Security feature is enabled (SecureCallFromIP = 1), the
device accepts only those IP-to-Tel calls with a source IP address defined in the 'Tel to
IP Routing' table.
„
Filter Calls to IP: When a Proxy is used, the device checks the 'Tel to IP Routing' table
before a telephone number is routed to the Proxy. If the number is not allowed
(number isn't listed or a Call Restriction routing rule is applied), the call is released.
„
Always Use Routing Table: When this feature is enabled (AlwaysUseRouteTable = 1),
even if a Proxy server is used, the SIP URI host name in the sent INVITE message is
obtained from this table. Using this feature, you can assign a different SIP URI host
name for different called and/or calling numbers.
Version 5.6
175
November 2008
Mediant 2000
„
Assign Profiles to destination addresses (also when a Proxy is used).
„
Alternative Routing (when a Proxy isn't used): an alternative IP destination for
telephone number prefixes is available. To associate an alternative IP address to a
called telephone number prefix, assign it with an additional entry (with a different IP
address), or use an FQDN that resolves into two IP addresses. The call is sent to the
alternative destination when one of the following occurs:
•
No ping to the initial destination is available, poor QoS (delay or packet loss,
calculated according to previous calls) is detected, or a DNS host name is not
resolved. For detailed information on Alternative Routing, refer to ''Configuring
Alternative Routing (Based on Connectivity and QoS'' on page 361.
•
A release reason defined in the 'Reasons for Alternative Tel to IP Routing' table is
received (refer to ''Reasons for Alternative Routing'' on page 188).
Alternative routing (using this table) is commonly implemented when there is no
response to an INVITE message (after INVITE retransmissions). The device then
issues an internal 408 'No Response' implicit release reason. If this reason is included
in the 'Reasons for Alternative Routing' table, the device immediately initiates a call to
the redundant destination using the next matched entry in the 'Tel to IP Routing' table.
Note that if a domain name in this table is resolved into two IP addresses, the timeout
for INVITE retransmissions can be reduced by using the parameter 'Number of RTX
Before Hotswap'.
Notes:
•
If the alternative routing destination is the device itself, the call can be
configured to be routed back to the PSTN. This feature is referred to as
'PSTN Fallback', meaning that if poor voice quality occurs over the IP
network, the call is routed through the legacy telephony system (PSTN).
•
Tel-to-IP routing can be performed before or after applying the number
manipulation rules. To control when number manipulation is performed,
use the 'Tel to IP Routing Mode' (or RouteModeTel2IP ini file) parameter,
described in the table below.
•
You can also configure the 'Tel to IP Routing' table using the ini file table
parameter Prefix (refer to ''Number Manipulation and Routing
Parameters'' on page 313).
¾ To configure the Tel to IP Routing table, take these 5 steps:
1.
Open the 'Tel to IP Routing' page (Configuration tab > Protocol Configuration menu
> Routing Tables submenu > Tel to IP Routing page item).

ƒ
[1] TCP
ƒ
[2] TLS
Note: When 'Not Configured' is selected, the transport type defined
by the parameter SIPTransportType (refer to ''SIP General
Parameters'' on page 121) is used.
Dest. IP Group ID
[PREFIX_DestIPGroupID]
The IP Group (1 to 9) to where you want to route the outbound IP-toIP call. The INVITE messages are sent to the IP address(es) defined
for the Proxy Set that is associated with this IP Group. If you select
an IP Group, it is unnecessary to configure a destination IP address
(in the 'Dest IP Address' field above). However, if both parameters
are configured, the INVITE message is sent only to the IP Group.
If the destination IP Group is of type USER, the device searches for
a match between the request URI (of the received INVITE) to an
AOR registration record in the device's internal database. The
INVITE is then sent to the IP address of the registered contact.
If the parameter 'AlwaysUseRouteTable' (AlwaysUseRouteTable) is
set to 'Enable' (1) in the ‘IP Group’ table (refer to ''Configuring the IP
Groups'' on page 201), the request SIP URI host name in the INVITE
message is set to the value of the parameter 'Dest IP Address' (if
defined); otherwise, it is set to the value of the parameter 'SIP Group
Name' (defined in the ‘IP Group’ table).
Note: This parameter is also used as the ‘Serving IP Group’ in the
‘Account’ table for acquiring authentication user/password for this
call.
IP Profile ID
[PREFIX_ProfileId]
IP Profile ID (defined in ''IP Profile Settings'' on page 193) assigned
to the outbound IP call. This allows you to assign many different
configuration attributes (e.g., voice coders) to this IP Group outbound
routing rule.
Status
A read-only field representing the Quality of Service of the
destination IP address:
ƒ
n/a = Alternative Routing feature is disabled.
ƒ
OK = IP route is available.
ƒ
Ping Error = No ping to IP destination; route is not available.
ƒ
QoS Low = Bad QoS of IP destination; route is not available.
ƒ
DNS Error = No DNS resolution (only when domain name is used
instead of an IP address).
3.4.7.4.4 IP to Trunk Group Routing Table
The 'IP to Trunk Group Routing Table' page provides a table for routing incoming IP calls
to groups of channels (E1/T1 B-channels)called Trunk Groups. Trunk Group ID's are
assigned to the device's channels in the 'Trunk Group Table' page (refer to “Configuring the
Trunk Group Table” on page 195). You can add up to 24 IP-to-Trunk Group routing rules in
the table.
Version 5.6
181
November 2008
Mediant 2000
Note: The 'IP to Trunk Group Routing Table' page appears only if the parameter
EnableSBC is set to 0 (default) in ''SBC Configuration'' on page 163. If this
parameter is enabled, the 'Inbound IP Routing Table' page appears instead
(refer to ''Inbound IP Routing Table'' on page 184 for a description of this
page).
The IP-to-Tel calls are routed to Trunk Groups according to any one of the following (or a
combination thereof) criteria:
„
Destination and source host prefix
„
Destination and source phone prefix
„
Source IP address
Once the call is routed to the specific Trunk Group, the call is sent to the device's channels
pertaining to that Trunk Group. The specific channel within the Trunk Group to which the
call is sent is determined according to the Trunk Group's channel selection mode. This
channel selection mode can be defined per Trunk Group (refer to ''Configuring the Trunk
Group Settings'' on page 197) or for all Trunk Groups using the global parameter
ChannelSelectMode.(refer to ''SIP General Parameters'' on page 121).
Notes:
•
When a call release reason (defined in ''Reasons for Alternative Routing''
on page 188) is received for a specific IP-to-Tel call, an alternative Trunk
Group for that call can be configured. This is performed by assigning the
call to an additional routing rule in the table (i.e., repeat the same routing
rule, but with a different Trunk Group ID).
•
You can also configure the 'IP to Trunk Group Routing' table using the ini
file table parameter PSTNPrefix (refer to ''Number Manipulation and
Routing Parameters'' on page 313).
¾ To configure the IP to Trunk Group Routing table, take these 5
steps:

on page 204) for obtaining authentication user name/password for
this call.
3.4.7.4.5 Inbound IP Routing Table
The 'Inbound IP Routing Table' page allows you to identify received calls as inbound IP-toIP calls and assign them to an IP Group (defined in ''Configuring the IP Groups'' on page
201), termed the Source IP Group. This table identifies these IP calls based on any
combination of the following criteria rules:
„
Destination and source host prefixes
„
Destination and source telephone number prefixes
„
Source IP address
Assigning these IP calls to Trunk Group ID '-1' identifies them as inbound IP-to-IP calls.
These calls, now pertaining to an IP Group, can later be routed to an outbound destination
IP Group (refer to ''Outbound IP Routing Table'' on page 178).
Note: The 'Inbound IP Routing Table' page appears only if the parameter
EnableSBC is set to 1 (i.e., enabled) in ''SBC Configuration'' on page 163. If
this parameter is not enabled (default), the 'IP to Trunk Group Routing Table'
page appears instead (refer to ''IP to Trunk Group Routing Table'' on page

3.4.7.4.6 Internal DNS Table
The 'Internal DNS Table' page, similar to a DNS resolution is used to translate up to 20 host
(domain) names into IP addresses (e.g., when using the 'Tel to IP Routing' table or
'Outbound IP Routing' table if EnableSBC is enabled). Up to four different IP addresses can
be assigned to the same host name, typically used for alternative routing (for Tel-to-IP call
routing).
Notes:
•
The device initially attempts to resolve a domain name using the Internal
DNS table. If the domain name isn't listed in the table, the device
performs a DNS resolution using an external DNS server.
•
You can also configure the DNS table using the ini file table parameter
DNS2IP (refer to ''Networking Parameters'' on page 260).

3.4.7.4.8 Reasons for Alternative Routing
The 'Reasons for Alternative Routing' page includes two groups - IP to Tel Reasons and Tel
to IP Reasons. Each group allows you to define up to four different release reasons. If a call
is released as a result of one of these reasons, the device tries to find an alternative route
for that call. The release reason for IP-to-Tel calls is provided in Q.931 notation. The
release reason for Tel-to-IP calls is provided in SIP 4xx, 5xx, and 6xx response codes. For
Tel-to-IP calls, an alternative IP address is provided; for IP-to-Tel calls an alternative Trunk
Group is provided. Refer to ''Tel to IP Routing Table'' on page 175 for information on
defining an alternative IP address; refer to ''IP to Trunk Group Routing'' on page 181 for
information on defining an alternative Trunk Group.
You can use the 'Reasons for Alternative Routing' page for the following example
scenarios:
„
Tel-to-IP calls: when there is no response to an INVITE message (after INVITE
retransmissions), the device issues an internal 408 'No Response' implicit release
reason.
„
IP-to-Tel calls: when the destination is busy and release reason #17 is issued or for
other call releases that issue the default release reason (#3). Refer to
DefaultReleaseCause in ''Advanced Parameters'' on page 151.
Notes:
•
The reasons for alternative routing for Tel-to-IP calls only apply when a
Proxy isn't used.
•
For Tel-to-IP calls, the device sends the call to an alternative route only
after the call has failed and the device has subsequently attempted twice
to establish the call unsuccessfully.
•
You can also configure alternative routing using the ini file table
parameters AltRouteCauseTel2IP and AltRouteCauseIP2Tel (refer to
''Number Manipulation and Routing Parameters'' on page 313).
¾ To configure the reasons for alternative routing, take these 5
steps:

3.4.7.4.9 Release Cause Mapping
The 'Release Cause Mapping' page consists of two groups that allow the device to map up
to 12 different SIP Responses to Q.850 Release Causes and vice versa, thereby overriding
the hard-coded mapping mechanism (described in ''Release Reason Mapping'' on page
394).
Note: You can also configure SIP Responses-Q.850 Release Causes mapping
using the ini file table parameters CauseMapISDN2SIP and
CauseMapSIP2ISDN (refer to ''ISDN and CAS Interworking-Related
Parameters'' on page 307).
¾ To configure Release Cause Mapping, take these 5 steps:

Configuring the Profile Definitions
The Profile Definitions submenu includes the following page items:
„
Coder Group Settings (refer to ''Coder Group Settings'' on page 190)
„
Tel Profile Settings (refer to ''Tel Profile Settings'' on page 192)
„
IP Profile Settings (refer to ''IP Profile Settings'' on page 193)
Implementing the device's Profile features, provides the device with high-level adaptation
when connected to a variety of equipment (at both Tel and IP sides) and protocols, each of
which requires different system behavior.
You can assign different Profiles (behavior) per call, using the call routing tables:
„
'Tel to IP Routing' page (refer to ''Tel to IP Routing Table'' on page 175) or 'Outbound
IP Routing Table' page if EnableSBC is set to 1 (refer to “Outbound IP Routing Table”
on page 178)
„
'IP to Trunk Group Routing' page (refer to ''IP to Trunk Group Routing'' on page 181) or
'Inbound IP Routing Table' page (refer to “Inbound IP Routing Table” on page 184) if
EnableSBC is set to 1,
In addition, you can associate different Profiles per the device's channels.
Each Profile contains a set of parameters such as coders, T.38 Relay, Voice and DTMF
Gain, Silence Suppression, Echo Canceler, RTP DiffServ, Current Disconnect and more.
The Profiles feature allows you to customize these parameters or turn them on or off, per
source or destination routing and/or per the device's trunks (channels). For example,
specific E1/T1 spans can be assigned a Profile that always uses G.711.
Each call can be associated with one or two Profiles - Tel Profile and/or IP Profile. If both IP
and Tel profiles apply to the same call, the coders and other common parameters of the
preferred Profile (determined by the Preference option) are applied to that call. If the
Preference of the Tel and IP Profiles is identical, the Tel Profile parameters take
precedence.
Notes:
•
The default values of the parameters in the 'Tel Profile Settings' and 'IP
Profile Settings' pages are identical to their default values in their
respective primary configuration page.
•
If you modify a parameter in its primary configuration page (orini file) that
also appears in the profile pages, the parameter's new value is
automatically updated in the profile pages. However, once you modify
any parameter in the profile pages, modifications to parameters in the
primary configuration pages (orini file) no longer impact that profile
pages.
3.4.7.5.1 Coder Group Settings
The 'Coder Group Settings' page provides a table for defining up to four different coder
groups. These coder groups are used in the 'Tel Profile Settings' and 'IP Profile Settings'
pages to assign different coders to Profiles.
For each coder group you can define up to five coders, where the first coder (and its
attributes) in the table takes precedence over the second coder, and so on. The first coder
is the highest priority coder and is used by the device whenever possible. If the far end
device cannot use the coder assigned as the first coder, the device attempts to use the next
coder and so on. For a list of coders supported by the device, refer to ''Coders'' on page
144.

190
Document #: LTRT-68808
SIP User's Manual
3. Web-Based Management
Notes:
•
Each coder type can appear only once per Coder Group.
•
The device always uses the packetization time requested by the remote
side for sending RTP packets. If not specified, the packetization time
(ptime) is assigned the default value.
•
Only the packetization time of the first coder in the defined coder list is
declared in INVITE / 200 OK SDP, even if multiple coders are defined.
•
For G.729, you can also select silence suppression without adaptations.
•
If silence suppression is enabled for G.729, the device includes the string
'annexb=no' in the SDP of the relevant SIP messages. If silence
suppression is set to 'Enable w/o Adaptations', 'annexb=yes' is included.
An exception is when the remote device is a Cisco gateway
(IsCiscoSCEMode).
•
You can also configure the coder groups using the ini file table parameter
CoderName (refer to ''SIP Configuration Parameters'' on page 284).
¾ To configure coder groups, take these 11 steps:
1.
Open the 'Coder Group Settings' page (Configuration tab > Protocol Configuration
menu > Profile Definitions submenu > Coder Group Settings page item).

3.4.7.6.2 Configuring the Trunk Group Settings
The 'Trunk Group Settings' page is mainly used to select the method for which IP-to-Tel
calls are assigned to channels within each Trunk Group. If no method is selected (for a
specific Trunk Group), the setting of the global parameter ChannelSelectMode in the 'SIP
General Parameters' page (refer to ''SIP General Parameters'' on page 121) applies. In
addition, this page also defines the method for registering Trunk Groups to selected Serving
IP Group IDs (if defined). You can add up to 24 entries in this table.
Note: You can also configure the Trunk Group Settings table using the ini file table
parameter TrunkGroupSettings (refer to ''Number Manipulation and Routing
Parameters'' on page 313).

the calling number.
ƒ
[7] Trunk Cyclic Ascending = The first channel of the next Trunk
(i.e., next to the Trunk from which the previous channel was
allocated) is selected.
Registration mode per Trunk Group:
ƒ
[1] Per Gateway = Single registration for the entire device
(default). This mode is applicable only if a default Proxy or
Registrar IP are configured, and Registration is enabled (i.e.,
parameter IsRegisterUsed is set to 1). In this mode, the URI
userpart in the From, To, and Contact headers is set to the value
of the global registration parameter GWRegistrationName (refer
to ''Proxy & Registration Parameters'' on page 132) or username
if GWRegistrationName is not configured.
ƒ
[0] Per Endpoint = Each channel in the Trunk Group registers
individually. The registrations are sent to the ServingIPGroupID if
defined in the table, otherwise to the default Proxy, and if no
default Proxy, then to the Registrar IP.
ƒ
[4] Don't Register = No registrations are sent by endpoints
pertaining to the Trunk Group. For example, if the device is
configured globally to register all its endpoints (using the
parameter ChannelSelectMode), you can exclude some
endpoints from being registered by assigning them to a Trunk
Group and configuring the Trunk Group registration mode to
'Don't Register'.
ƒ
[5] Per Account = Registrations are sent (or not) to an IP Group,
according to the settings in the Account table (refer to
''Configuring the Account Table'' on page 204).

Parameter
Description
Serving IP Group ID
[TrunkGroupSettings_Servi
ngIPGroup]
The Serving IP Group ID to where INVITE messages initiated by this
Trunk Group's endpoints are sent. The actual destination to where
these INVITE messages are sent is to the Proxy Set ID (refer to
''Proxy Sets Table'' on page 141) associated with this Serving IP
Group. The Request URI hostname in the INVITE and REGISTER
messages (except for 'Per Account' registration modes) is set to the
value of the field 'SIP Group Name' defined in the 'IP Group' table
(refer to ''Configuring the IP Groups'' on page 201).
If no Serving IP Group ID is selected, the INVITE messages are sent
to the default Proxy or according to the 'Tel to IP Routing Table'
(refer to ''Tel to IP Routing Table'' on page 175) or 'Outbound IP
Routing Table' if EnableSBC is set to 1 (refer to “Outbound IP
Routing Table” on page 178).
Note: If the parameter PreferRouteTable is set to 1 (refer to ''Proxy

3.4.7.6.3 Configuring the IP Groups
The 'IP Group Table' page allows you to create up to nine logical IP entities (IP Groups)
that are later used in the call routing tables. The IP Groups are typically implemented in Telto-IP call routing. The IP Group can be used as a destination entity in the 'Tel to IP Routing'
table (or 'Outbound IP Routing Table'), and Serving IP Group ID in the 'Trunk Group
Settings' (refer to ''Configuring the Trunk Group Settings'' on page 197) and 'Account' (refer
to ''Configuring the Account Table'' on page 204) tables. These call routing tables are used
for identifying the IP Group from where the INVITE is sent for obtaining a digest
user/password from the 'Account' table if there is a need to authenticate subsequent SIP
requests in the call. The IP Group can also be implemented in IP-to-Tel call routing (or
inbound IP routing) as a source IP Group.
The IP Groups are assigned various entities such as a Proxy Set ID, which represents an
IP address (created in ''Proxy Sets Table'' on page 141). You can also assign the IP Group
with a host name and other parameters that reflect parameters sent in SIP Request
From\To.
Notes:
•
By default, if you disable the use of a proxy (i.e., IsProxyUsed is set to 0),
then only one IP Group is defined (and working with multiple IP Groups is
not valid).
•
You can also configure the IP Groups table using the ini file table
parameter IPGroup (refer to ''SIP Configuration Parameters'' on page
284).
¾ To configure IP Groups, take these 4 steps:
1.
Open the 'IP Group Table' page (Configuration tab > Protocol Configuration menu
> Trunk/IP Group submenu > IP Group Table page item).

Table 3-51: IP Group Parameters Description
Parameter
Type
Description
The IP Group can be defined as one of the following types:
ƒ
SERVER = used when the destination address (configured by the
Proxy Set) of the IP Group (e.g., ITSP, Proxy, IP-PBX, or Application
server) is known.
ƒ
USER = represents a group of users (such as IP phones and
softphones) where their location is dynamically obtained by the device
when REGISTER requests and responses traverse (or are terminated)
by the device. These users are considered remote (far-end) users.
Typically, this IP Group is configured with a Serving IP Group that
represents an IP-PBX, Application or Proxy server that serves this
USER-type IP Group. Each SIP request sent by a user of this IP
Group is proxied to the Serving IP Group. For registrations, the device
updates its internal database with the AOR and contacts of the users.
Digest authentication using SIP 401/407 responses (if needed) is
performed by the Serving IP Group. The device forwards these
responses directly to the SIP users.
To route a call to a registered user, a rule must be configured in the
‘Outbound IP Routing’ table (refer to “Outbound IP Routing Table” on
page 178). The device searches the dynamic database (by using the
request URI) for an entry that matches a registered AOR or Contact.
Once an entry is found, the IP destination is obtained from this entry,
and a SIP request is sent to the destination.
The device also supports NAT traversal for the SIP clients that are behind
NAT. In this case, the device must be defined with a global IP address.
Note: This field is available only if EnableSBC is set to 1 (refer to “SBC
Configuration” on page 163).
Description
Brief string description of the IP Group.
The value range is a string of up to 29 characters. The default is an empty
field.
Proxy Set ID
Selects the Proxy Set ID (defined in ''Proxy Sets Table'' on page 141) to
associate with the IP Group. All INVITE messages configured to be 'sent'
to the specific IP Group are in fact sent to the IP address associated with
this Proxy Set.
The range is 0-5, where 0 is the default Proxy Set.
Note: The Proxy Set is only defined for SERVER type IP Groups.
SIP Group Name
The request URI host name used in INVITE and REGISTER messages
that are sent to this IP Group, or the host name in the From header of
INVITE messages received from this IP Group. If not specified, the value
of the global parameter ProxyName (refer to ''Proxy & Registration
Parameters'' on page 132) is used instead.
The value range is a string of up to 49 characters. The default is an empty
field.
Note: If the IP Group is of type USER, this parameter is used internally as
a hostname in the request URI for TDM-to-IP initiated calls. For example,
if an incoming call from the device's T1 trunk is routed to a USER-type IP
Group, the device first forms the request URI
(destination_number@SIPGroupName), and then it searches the User’s
internal database for a match.

Parameter
Description
INVITE messages that are received from this IP Group and forwarded by
the device to another IP Group.
Notes:
Serving IP Group ID
Enable Survivability
ƒ
This parameter is applicable only for USER-type IP Groups.
ƒ
This parameter is overridden by the ‘Contact User’ parameter (if
configured) in the ‘Account’ table (refer to ''Configuring the Account
Table'' on page 204).
If configured, INVITE messages initiated from the IP Group are sent to
this Serving IP Group (range 1 to 9). In other words, the INVITEs are sent
to the address defined for the Proxy Set associated with this Serving IP
Group. The Request URI host name in these INVITE messages are set to
the value of the parameter ‘SIP Group Name’ defined for the Serving IP
Group.
Notes:
ƒ
This field is available only if EnableSBC is set to 1 (refer to “SBC
Configuration” on page 163).
ƒ
If the parameter PreferRouteTable is set to 1, the routing rules in the
‘Outbound IP Routing’ table takes precedence over this ‘Serving IP
Group ID’ parameter.
ƒ
If this parameter is not configured, the INVITE messages are sent to
the default Proxy or according to the ‘Outbound IP Routing’ table.
Determines whether Survivability mode is enabled for USER-type IP
Groups.
ƒ
Disable (default).
ƒ
Enable = Survivability mode is enabled. The device records in its local
database the registration messages sent by the clients belonging to
the USER-type IP Group. If communication with the Serving IP Group
(e.g., IP-PBX) fails, the USER-type IP Group enters into Survivability
mode in which the device uses its database for routing calls between
the clients (e.g., IP phones) of the USER-type IP Group. The RTP
packets between the IP phones in Survivability mode always traverse
through the device. In Survivability mode, the device is capable of
receiving new registrations. When the Serving IP Group is available
again, the device returns to normal mode, sending INVITE and
REGISTER messages to the Serving IP Group.
Notes:
Routing Mode
Version 5.6

Description
destination IP Group is not alive, the device uses the 'Outbound IP
Routing' table (if the parameter IsFallbackUsed is set 1, i.e., fallback
enabled - refer to Proxy & Registration Parameters on page 132).
ƒ
[3] Request-URI = The device sends the SIP INVITE to the IP address
according to the received SIP Request-URI host name.
Note: This field is available only if EnableSBC is set to 1 (refer to “SBC
Configuration” on page 163).
SIP Re Routing Mode
Determines the routing mode after a call redirection (i.e., a 3xx SIP
response is received) or transfer (i.e., a SIP REFER request is received).
ƒ
[0] Standard = INVITE messages that are generated as a result of
Transfer or Redirect are sent directly to the URI, according to the
Refer-To header in the REFER message or Contact header in the 3xx
response (default).
ƒ
[1] Proxy = Sends a new INVITE to the Proxy. Note: Applicable only if
a Proxy server is used and the parameter AlwaysSendtoProxy is set to
0.
ƒ
[2] Routing Table = Uses the Routing table to locate the destination
and then sends a new INVITE to this destination.
Notes:
Always Use Route Table
ƒ
When this parameter is set to [1] and the INVITE sent to the Proxy
fails, the device re-routes the call according to the Standard mode [0].
ƒ
When this parameter is set to [2] and the INVITE fails, the device reroutes the call according to the Standard mode [0]. If DNS resolution
fails, the device attempts to route the call to the Proxy. If routing to the
Proxy also fails, the Redirect / Transfer request is rejected.
ƒ
When this parameter is set to [2], the XferPrefix parameter can be
used to define different routing rules for redirected calls.
ƒ
This parameter is disregarded if the parameter AlwaysSendToProxy is
set to 1.
Determines the Request URI host name in outgoing INVITE messages.
ƒ
Disable (default).
ƒ
Enable = The device uses the IP address (or domain name) defined in
the 'Tel to IP Routing' table (''Tel to IP Routing Table'' on page 175) as
the Request URI host name in outgoing INVITE messages, instead of
the value entered in the 'SIP Group Name' field.
3.4.7.6.4 Configuring the Account Table
The 'Account Table' page allows you to define accounts per Trunk Groups (referred to as
Served Trunk Group) or to a Served IP Group for registration and/or digest authentication
(user name and password) to a destination IP address (Serving IP Group). The Account
table can be used, for example, to register to an Internet Telephony Service Provider (ITSP)
on behalf of an IP-PBX to which the device is connected. The registrations are sent to the
Proxy Set ID (refer to ''Proxy Sets Table'' on page 141) associated with these Serving IP
Groups. A Trunk Group can register to more than one Serving IP Group (e.g., ITSP's), by
configuring multiple entries in this Account table with the same Served Trunk Group, but
with different Serving IP Groups, user name/password, Host Name, and Contact User
parameters.

4. ini File Configuration
ini File Configuration
As an alternative to configuring the device using the Web interface (as described in ''WebBased Management'' on page 19), you can configure the device by loading an ini file
containing user-defined parameters. The ini file can be loaded using the following methods:
„
AudioCodes' BootP/TFTP utility (refer to the Product Reference Manual)
„
Any standard TFTP server
„
Web interface (refer to ''Backing Up and Restoring Configuration'' on page 240)
The ini file configuration parameters are saved in the device's non-volatile memory after the
file is loaded to the device. When a parameter is absent from the ini file, the default value is
assigned to that parameter (according to the cmp file loaded to the device) and stored in
the non-volatile memory (thereby, overriding the value previously defined for that
parameter).
Some of the device's parameters are configurable only through the ini file (and not the Web
interface). These parameters usually determine a low-level functionality and are seldom
changed for a specific application.
Notes:
4.1
•
For a list of the ini file parameters, refer to ''The ini File Parameter
Reference'' on page 260. The ini file parameters that are configurable in
the Web interface are described in ''Web-Based Management'' on page
19. The ini parameters that can't be configured using the Web interface
are described in this section.
•
To define or restore default settings using the ini file, refer to ''Default
Settings'' on page 333.
Secured Encoded ini File
The ini file contains sensitive information that is required for the functioning of the device.
Typically, it is loaded to or retrieved from the device using TFTP or HTTP. These protocols
are not secure and vulnerable to potential hackers.
To overcome this security threat, the AudioCodes' TrunkPack Downloadable Conversion
Utility (DConvert) allows you to binary-encode the ini file before loading it to the device
(refer to the Product Reference Manual). If you retrieve an ini file from the device using the
Web interface (refer to Backing Up and Restoring Configuration) that was initially loaded as
encoded to the device, the file is retrieved as encoded and vice versa.
Note: The procedure for loading an encoded ini file is identical to the procedure for
loading an unencoded ini file.
Version 5.6
255
November 2008
Mediant 2000
4.2
The ini File Structure
The ini file can contain any number of parameters. The ini file can contain the following
types of parameters:
4.2.1
„
Individual parameters, which are conveniently grouped (optional) by their functionality
(refer to ''Structure of Individual ini File Parameters'' on page 256)
„
Table parameters, which include multiple individual parameters (refer to ''Structure of
ini File Table Parameters'' on page 257)
Structure Rules
The ini file must adhere to the following format rules:
4.2.2
„
The ini file name must not include hyphens (-) or spaces; if necessary, use an
underscore (_) instead.
„
Lines beginning with a semi-colon (;) are ignored. These can be used for adding
remarks in the ini file.
„
A carriage return (i.e., Enter) must be done at the end of each line.
„
The number of spaces before and after the equals sign (=) is irrelevant.
„
Subsection names for grouping parameters are optional.
„
If there is a syntax error in the parameter name, the value is ignored.
„
Syntax errors in the parameter's value can cause unexpected errors (parameters may

4. ini File Configuration
Structure of ini File Table Parameters
You can use anini file to configure table parameters, which include several parameters
(table columns) grouped according to the applications they configure (e.g., NFS and
IPSec). When loading an ini file to the device, it's recommended to include only tables that
belong to applications that are to be configured (dynamic tables of other applications are
empty, but static tables are not).
A table is defined as a secret table (i.e., concealed) if it contains at least one secret data
field or if it depends on another secret table. For example, in the IPSec application, IPSec
tables are defined as secret tables as the IKE table contains a pre-shared key that must be
concealed. Therefore, the SPD table that depends on the IKE table is defined as a secret
table as well. Secret tables are always concealed when loading an ini file to the device.
However, there is a commented title that states that the secret table exists in the device, but
is not to be revealed. Secret tables are always stored in the device's non-volatile memory
and can be overwritten by new tables that are provided in a new ini file. If a secret table
appears in an ini file, it replaces the current table regardless of its content. To delete a
secret table from the device, include an empty table of the same type (with no data lines) as
part of a new ini file.
The ini file table parameter is composed of the following elements:
„
Title of the table: The name of the table in square brackets (e.g.,
[MY_TABLE_NAME]).
„
Format line: Specifies the columns (parameters) of the table (by their string names)
that are to be configured.
„
„
•
The first word of the Format line must be 'FORMAT', followed by the Index field
name, and then an equal (=) sign. After the equal sign, the names of the
parameters (items) are listed.
•
Items must be separated by a comma (,).
•
The Format line must only include columns that can be modified (i.e., parameters
that are not specified as read-only). An exception is Index fields that are always
mandatory.
•
The Format line must end with a semicolon (;).
Data line(s): Contain the actual values of the parameters. The values are interpreted
according to the Format line.
•
The first word of the Data line must be the table’s string name followed by the
Index field.
•
Items must be separated by a comma (,).
•
A Data line must end with a semicolon (;).
End-of-Table Mark: Indicates the end of the table. The same string used for the
table’s title, preceded by a backslash (\), e.g., [\MY_TABLE_NAME].
The following displays an example of the structure of an ini file table parameter.
[Table Title]
; This is the title of the table.
FORMAT Item_Index = Item_Name1, Item_Name2, Item_Name3;
; This is the Format line.
Item 0 = value1, value2, value3;
Item 1 = value1, $$, value3;
; These are the Data lines.
[\Table_Title]
; This is the end-of-the-table-mark.
Refer to the following notes:
Version 5.6
257
November 2008
Mediant 2000
„
Indices (in both the Format and the Data lines) must appear in the same order. The
Index field must never be omitted.
„
The Format line can include a subset of the configurable fields in a table. In this case,
all other fields are assigned with the pre-defined default values for each configured
line.
„
The order of the fields in the Format line isn’t significant (as opposed to the Index
fields). The fields in the Data lines are interpreted according to the order specified in
the Format line.
„
The double dollar sign ($$) in a Data line indicates the default value for the parameter.
„
The order of the Data lines is insignificant.
„
Data lines must match the Format line, i.e., it must contain exactly the same number of
Indices and Data fields and must be in exactly the same order.
„
A line in a table is identified by its table name and Index fields. Each such line may
appear only once in the ini file.
„
Table dependencies: Certain tables may depend on other tables. For example, one
table may include a field that specifies an entry in another table. This method is used
to specify additional attributes of an entity, or to specify that a given entity is part of a
larger entity. The tables must appear in the order of their dependency (i.e., if Table X is
referred to by Table Y, Table X must appear in the ini file before Table Y).
The table below displays an example of an ini file table parameter:
[ PREFIX ]
FORMAT PREFIX_Index = PREFIX_DestinationPrefix,
PREFIX_DestAddress, PREFIX_SourcePrefix, PREFIX_ProfileId,
PREFIX_MeteringCode, PREFIX_DestPort;
PREFIX 0 = 10, 10.13.83.5, *, 0, 255, 0;
PREFIX 1 = 20, 10.13.83.7, *, 0, 255, 0;
PREFIX 2 = 30, 10.13.83.6, *, 0, 255, 0;
PREFIX 3 = 20, 10.13.83.2, *, 0, 255, 0;
[ \PREFIX ]
Note: Do not include read-only parameters in the ini file table parameter, as this can
cause an error when trying to load the file to the device.

Modifying an ini File
You can modify an ini file currently used by a device. Modifying an ini file instead of loading
an entirely new ini file preserves the device's current configuration, including factory default
values.
¾ To modify an ini file, take these 4 steps:
1.
Save the ini file from the device to your PC using the Web interface (refer to ''Backing
Up and Restoring Configuration'' on page 240).
2.
Open the ini file (using a text file editor such as Microsoft Notepad), and then modify
the ini file parameters according to your requirements.
3.
Save the modified ini file, and then close the file.
4.
Load the modified ini file to the device, using either the BootP/TFTP utility or the Web
interface (refer to ''Backing Up and Restoring Configuration'' on page 240).
Tip:
Version 5.6
Before loading the ini file to the device, verify that the file extension of the ini
file saved on your PC is correct, i.e., *.ini.

4.4.7
SIP Configuration Parameters
The SIP-related ini file configuration parameters are described in the table below.
Table 4-7: SIP ini File Parameters
Parameter
ReliableConnectionPersistent
Mode
Description
Determines whether all TCP/TLS connections are set as
persistent and therefore, not released.
ƒ
[0] = Disable (default) - all TCP connections (except those that
are set to a proxy IP) are released if not used by any SIP
dialog\transaction.
ƒ
[1] = Enable - TCP connections to all destinations are
persistent and not released unless the device reaches 70% of
its maximum TCP resources.
While trying to send a SIP message connection, reuse policy
determines whether alive connections to the specific destination
are re-used.
Persistent TCP connection ensures less network traffic due to
fewer setting up and tearing down of TCP connections and
reduced latency on subsequent requests due to avoidance of
initial TCP handshake. For TLS, persistent connection may
reduce the number of costly TLS handshakes to establish security
associations, in addition to the initial TCP connection set up.

4. ini File Configuration
Parameter
EnableRport
Description
ƒ
[0] = Disregard the silecesupp attribute (default).
ƒ
[1] = Handle incoming Re-INVITE messages that include the
silencesupp:off attribute in the SDP as a request to switch to
the Voice-Band-Data (VBD) mode.
Enables / disables the usage of the 'rport' parameter in the Via
header.
ƒ
[0] = Enabled.
ƒ
[1] = Disabled (default).
The device adds an 'rport' parameter to the Via header of each
outgoing SIP message. The first Proxy that receives this message
sets the 'rport' value of the response to the actual port from which
the request was received. This method is used, for example, to
enable the device to identify its port mapping outside a NAT.
If the Via doesn't include 'rport' tag, the destination port of the
response is taken from the host part of the Via header.
If the Via includes 'rport' tag without a port value, the destination
port of the response is the source port of the incoming request.
If the Via includes 'rport' tag with a port value (rport=1001), the
destination port of the response is the port indicated in the 'rport'
tag.
DSPVersionTemplateNumber
For a description of this parameter, refer to Configuring the DSP
Templates on page 79.
VBRCoderHeaderFormat
Defines the format of the RTP header for VBR coders.
ƒ

3267.
The valid range is 0 to 3. The default is 0.
AMRFECNumberOfCodecMod
es
Determines the number of entries to be defined in the AMR
Management Policy table. Each entry defines the policy of a
different rate.
The range is 0 - 9. The default is 0.
AMRFECDelayThreshhold
Defines the one-way delay value (in msec) that may cause the
AMR Hand Out report.
AMRFECDelayHysteresis
Version 5.6
ƒ
0 = 'Hand Out' report is disabled (default)
ƒ
255 msec
Defines the hysteresis of the Delay Threshold for AMR Hand-out
events (in msec). The valid values are 0 to 255. The default is 100
msec.

AMRCoderHeaderFormat
TransparentCoderOnDataCall
Description
Determines the format of the AMR header.
ƒ
[0] (default) = Non standard multiple frames packing in a single
RTP frame. Each frame has a CMR & TOC header.
ƒ
[1] = Reserved.
ƒ
[2] = AMR Header according to RFC 3267 Octet Aligned
header format.
ƒ
[3] = AMR is passed using the AMR IF2 format.
ƒ
[0] = Only use coders from the coder list (default).
ƒ
[1] = Use transparent coder for data calls (according to RFC
4040).
The 'Transparent' coder can be used on data calls. When the
device receives a Setup message from the ISDN with
'TransferCapabilities = data', it can initiate a call using the coder
'Transparent' (even if the coder is not included in the coder list).
The initiated INVITE includes the following SDP attribute:
a=rtpmap:97 CLEARMODE/8000
The default Payload Type is set according to the CoderName
table. If the Transparent coder is not set in the Coders table, the
default value is set to 56. The Payload Type is negotiated with the
remote side, i.e., the selected Payload Type is according to the
remote side selection.
The receiving device must include the 'Transparent' coder in its
coder list.
IsFaxUsed
For a description of this parameter, refer to ''SIP General
Parameters'' on page 121.
T38UseRTPPort
Defines the port (with relation to RTP port) for sending and
receiving T.38 packets.
ƒ
[0] = Use the RTP port +2 to send / receive T.38 packets
(default).
ƒ
[1] = Use the same port as the RTP port to send / receive T.38
packets.
Notes:
ƒ
For this parameter to take effect, you must reset the device.
ƒ
When the device is configured to use V.152 to negotiate audio
and T.38 coders, the UDP port published in SDP for RTP and

IgnoreAlertAfterEarlyMedia
Determines the device's interworking of ALERT messages from
PRI to SIP.
ƒ
[0] = Disabled (default).
ƒ
[1] = Enabled.
When enabled, if the device already sent a 183 response with an
SDP included and an ALERT message is received from the Tel
side (with or without Progress Indicator), the device does not send
an additional 18x response and the voice channel remains open.
When disabled, the device sends additional 18x responses as a
result of receiving an ALERT message whether or not a 18x
response was already sent.
EnableTransfer
For a description of this parameter, refer to ''Supplementary

XferPrefix
For a description of this parameter, refer to ''Supplementary
Services'' on page 159.
EnableMicrosofExt
Modifies the called number for numbers received with Microsoft's
proprietary "ext=xxx" parameter in the SIP INVITE URI user part.
Microsoft Office Communications Server sometimes uses this
proprietary parameter to indicate the extension number of the
called party. For example, if a calling party makes a call to
telephone number 622125519100 Ext. 104, the device receives
the SIP INVITE (from Microsoft's application) with the URI user
part as INVITE sip:622125519100;[email protected] (or INVITE
tel:622125519100;ext=104). If the parameter EnableMicrosofExt
is enabled, the device modifies the called number by adding an
"e" as the prefix, removing the "ext=" parameter, and adding the
extension number as the suffix (e.g., e622125519100104). Once
modified, the device can then manipulate the number further,
using the Number Manipulation tables (refer to ''Number
Manipulation and Routing Parameters'' on page 313) to leave only
the last 3 digits (for example) for sending to a PBX.
XferPrefixIP2Tel
Version 5.6
ƒ
[0] = Disabled (default).
ƒ
[1] = Enabled.
Defines the prefix that is added to the destination number
received in the SIP Refer-to header (in IP-to-Tel calls). This
parameter is applicable for CAS Blind Transfer modes (
TrunkTransferMode = 3).
The valid range is a string of up to 9 characters. The default is an
empty string.

order of their appearance.
DisableAutoDTMFMute
ƒ
When out-of-band DTMF transfer is used ([1], [2], or [3]), the
parameter DTMFTransportType is automatically set to 0
(DTMF digits are erased from the RTP stream).
ƒ
When RFC 2833 ([4]) is used, the device:
1) Negotiates RFC 2833 Payload Type (PT) using local and
remote SDPs.
2) Sends DTMF packets using RFC 2833 PT according to the
PT in the received SDP.
3) Expects to receive RFC 2833 packets with the same PT as
configured by the parameter RFC2833PayloadType.
4) Uses the same PT for send and receive if the remote party
doesn't include the RFC 2833 DTMF PT in its SDP.
ƒ
When TxDTMFOption is set to [0], the RFC 2833 PT is set
according to the parameter RFC2833PayloadType for both
transmit and receive.
ƒ
For defining this parameter using the Web interface, refer to
''DTMF & Dialing Parameters'' on page 147.
ƒ
For a description on using ini file table parameters, refer to
''Structure of ini File Table Parameters'' on page 257.
Enables / disables the automatic muting of DTMF digits when outof-band DTMF transmission is used.
ƒ
[0] = Automatic mute is used (default).
ƒ
[1] = No automatic mute of in-band DTMF.
When DisableAutoDTMFMute = 1, the DTMF transport type is set
according to the parameter DTMFTransportType and the DTMF
digits aren't muted if out-of-band DTMF mode is selected
(TxDTMFOption =1, 2 or 3). This enables the sending of DTMF
digits in-band (transparent of RFC 2833) in addition to out-of-band
DTMF messages.
Note: Usually this mode is not recommended.

‘tel:’ URI or ‘user=phone’ is defined, the binding is performed
according to the user part of the URI only. Otherwise, the
binding is according to the entire URI, i.e., User@Host
(default).
ƒ
[1] User Part only = The binding is always performed
according to the User Part only.
Determines whether the SAS application uses ENUM queries to
route incoming INVITE requests when in Emergency mode. Once
an INVITE is received in Emergency mode, the SAS database of
registered users is searched for a matching AoR. If not found, the
Redundant SAS servers are searched. If there is still no match, an
ENUM query is performed and the response is used to correctly
route the INVITE. If no response is received from the ENUM
server, the INVITE is routed to the default gateway.
ƒ

(the To header), before saving it to the registered users database.
The format of this table parameter is as follows:
[SASRegistrationManipulation]
FORMAT SASRegistrationManipulation_Index =
SASRegistrationManipulation_RemoveFromRight,
SASRegistrationManipulation_LeaveFromRight;
[\SASRegistrationManipulation]
ƒ
RemoveFromRight = number of digits removed from the right
side of the User-Part before saving to the registered user
database.
ƒ
LeaveFromRight = number of digits to keep from the right side.
If both RemoveFromRight and LeaveFromRight are defined, the
RemoveFromRight is applied first. The registered database
contains the AoR before and after the manipulation.
The range of both RemoveFromRight and LeaveFromRight is 0 to
30.
Note: This table can include only one index entry.
SASEmergencyNumbers
Version 5.6
Defines emergency numbers for the device's SAS application.
When the device's SAS agent receives a SIP INVITE (from an IP
phone) that includes one of the emergency numbers (in the SIP
user part), it forwards the INVITE to the default gateway
(configured by the parameter SASDefaultGatewayIP), i.e., the
device itself, which sends the call directly to the PSTN. This is
important for routing emergency numbers such as 911 (in North
America) directly to the PSTN. This is applicable to SAS operating
in Normal and Emergency modes.

Parameter
Description
Up to four emergency numbers can be defined, where each
number can be up to four digits.
Profile Parameters
CoderName
This ini file table parameter defines the device's coder list. This
includes up to five groups of coders (consisting of up to five
coders per group) that can be associated with IP or Tel profiles
('Coder Group Settings' page in the Web interface -- refer to
''Coder Group Settings'' on page 190). The first group of coders
(indices 0 through 4) is the default coder list and default coder
group. The format of this parameter is as follows:
[CoderName]
FORMAT CoderName_Index = CoderName_Type,
CoderName_PacketInterval, CoderName_rate,
CoderName_PayloadType, CoderName_Sce;
[\CoderName]
Where,
ƒ
Type = Coder name
ƒ
PacketInterval = Packetization time
ƒ
Rate = Packetization rate
ƒ
PayloadType = Payload type
ƒ
Sce = Silence suppression mode
For example:
[CoderName]
CoderName 0 = g711Alaw64k, 20,,,0;
CoderName 1 = g726, $$, 3, 38, 0;
CoderName 2 = g729, 40, 255, 255, 1;
[\CoderName]
Notes:
SIP User's Manual
ƒ
This parameter can include up to 25 indices (i.e., five coders
per five coder groups).
ƒ
The coder name is case-sensitive.
ƒ
If silence suppression is not defined for a specific coder, the
value defined by the parameter EnableSilenceCompression is
used.
ƒ
The value of several fields is hard-coded according to common
standards (e.g., payload type of G.711 U-law is always 0).
Other values can be set dynamically. If no value is specified for
a dynamic field, a default value is assigned. If a value is
specified for a hard-coded field, the value is ignored.
ƒ
Only the ptime of the first coder in the defined coder list is
declared in INVITE / 200 OK SDP, even if multiple coders are
defined.
ƒ
If the coder G.729 is selected and silence suppression is
enabled (for this coder), the device includes the string
'annexb=no' in the SDP of the relevant SIP messages. If
silence suppression is set to 'Enable w/o Adaptations',
'annexb=yes' is included. An exception is when the remote
device is a Cisco gateway (IsCiscoSCEMode).
ƒ
Both GSM-FR and MS-GSM coders use Payload Type 3.

For a description of this parameter, refer to ''Mapping NPI/TON
to Phone-Context'' on page 170.
PhoneContext
This ini file table parameter defines the Phone Context table. The
format for this parameter is as follows:
[PhoneContext]
FORMAT PhoneContext_Index = PhoneContext_Npi,
PhoneContext_Ton, PhoneContext_Context;
[\PhoneContext]
Where,
ƒ
Npi = Number Plan.
ƒ
Ton = Type of Number.
ƒ
Context = Phone-Context value.
When a call is received from the ISDN, the NPI and TON are
compared to the table, and the Phone-Context value is used in
the outgoing SIP INVITE message. The same mapping occurs
when an INVITE with a Phone-Context attribute is received. The
Phone-Context parameter appears in the standard SIP headers
where a phone number is used (Request-URI, To, From,
Diversion).
For example:
[PhoneContext]
PhoneContext 0 = 0,0,unknown.com
PhoneContext 1 = 1,1,host.com
PhoneContext 2 = 9,1,na.e164.host.com
[\PhoneContext]
Notes:
SIP User's Manual
ƒ
This parameter can include up to 20 indices.
ƒ
Several entries with the same NPI-TON or Phone-Context are
allowed. In this scenario, a Tel-to-IP call uses the first match.
ƒ
Phone-Context '+' is a unique as it doesn't appear in the
Request-URI as a Phone-Context parameter. Instead, it's
added as a prefix to the phone number. The '+' isn't removed
from the phone number in the IP-to-Tel direction.
ƒ
To configure the Phone Context table using the Web
interface, refer to ''Mapping NPI/TON to Phone-Context'' on
page 170.

(VxxTransportType = 2), a detection of an Answer Tone from the
network triggers a switch to bypass mode in addition to the local
Fax/Modem tone detections. However, only a high bit-rate coder
voice session effectively detects the Answer Tone sent by a remote
Endpoint. This can be useful when, for example, the payload of
voice and bypass is the same, allowing the originator to switch to
bypass mode as well.

KeyBlindTransfer
Description
ƒ
[0] = DTMF event is reported on the end of a detected DTMF
digit.
ƒ
[1] = DTMF event is reported on the start of a detected DTMF
digit (default).
Keypad sequence that activates blind transfer for Tel-to-IP calls.
There are two possible scenarios:
ƒ
Option 1: After this sequence is dialed, the current call is put on
hold (using Re-INVITE), a dial tone is played to the B-channel,
and then phone number collection starts.
ƒ
Option 2: A Hook-Flash is pressed, the current call is put on
hold, a dial tone is played to the B-channel, and then digit
collection starts. After this sequence is identified, the device
continues the collection of the destination phone number.
For both options, after the phone number is collected, it's sent to
the transferee in a SIP REFER request (without a Replaces
header). The call is then terminated and a confirmation tone is
played to the B-channel. If the phone number collection fails due to
a mismatch, a reorder tone is played to the B-channel.
Note: It is possible to configure whether the KeyBlindTransfer code
is added as a prefix to the dialed destination number, by using the
parameter KeyBlindTransferAddPrefix.
KeyBlindTransferAddPrefix
VoicePayloadFormat
Determines whether the device adds the Blind Transfer code
(KeyBlindTransfer) to the dialed destination number.
ƒ

ƒ
[1] Enable.
Determines the bit ordering of the G.726/G.727 voice payload
format.
ƒ
[0] = Little Endian (default)
ƒ
[1] = Big Endian
Note: To ensure high voice quality when using G.726/G.727, both
communicating ends should use the same endianness format.
Therefore, when the device communicates with a third-party entity
that uses the G.726/G.727 voice coder and voice quality is poor,
change the settings of this parameter (between Big Endian and
Little Endian).

5. Default Settings
Default Settings
You can restore the device's factory default settings or define your own default settings for
the device.
5.1
Defining Default Settings
The device is shipped with factory default configuration values stored on its non-volatile
memory (flash). However, you can define your own default values instead of using the
factory defaults. This is performed using an ini file that includes the header
'[ClientDefaults]'. Below this header, simply define new default values for the required ini file
parameters. The parameters are defined in the same format as in the standard ini file, and
loaded to the device using TFTP (i.e., not via the Web interface).
An example of a ClientsDefault ini file for defining default values for Syslog server
parameters is shown below:
[ClientDefaults]
EnableSyslog = 1
SyslogServerIP = 10.13.2.20
¾ To define default values for device parameters, take these 2 steps:
1.
Configure the ClientDefaults ini file with new default parameter values, as required.
2.
Load the ClientDefaults ini file to the device, using TFTP (refer to the Product
Reference Manual).
¾ To remove user-defined defaults and restore factory default values,
take this step:
„
5.2
Load an empty (i.e., without any parameters) ClientDefaults ini file to the device, using
TFTP.
Restoring Factory Defaults
You can restore all or most of the device's configuration settings to default settings:
„
Restoring default settings except for the device's IP address and Web interface's login
user name and password: Load to the device an empty ini file (without any parameters
or with a semicolon (;) preceding all lines). When a parameter is absent from a loaded
ini file, the default value is assigned to that parameter (according to the cmp file loaded
to the device) and saved to the non-volatile memory (thereby, overriding the value
previously defined for that parameter).
„
Restoring all default settings, including the device's IP address and Web interface's
login user name and password: Use the device's hardware Reset button (refer to the
device's Installation Manual).

6. Auxiliary Configuration Files
Auxiliary Configuration Files
This section describes the auxiliary files (with the dat file extension), which are loaded, in
addition to the ini file, to the device. You can load the auxiliary files to the device using one
of the following methods:
6.1
„
Web interface (refer to ''Loading Auxiliary Files'' on page 231)
„
ini file: specify the name of the relevant auxiliary file in the device's ini file and then
load the ini file to the device (refer to ''Loading Auxiliary Files'' on page 231).
Configuring the Call Progress Tones File
The Call Progress Tones (CPT) auxiliary file used by the device is a binary file (with file
extension dat). This file contains the definitions of the Call Progress Tones (levels and
frequencies) that are detected / generated by the device.
You can either use one of the supplied device auxiliary (dat) files or create your own file. To
create your own auxiliary file, it's recommended to modify the supplied usa_tone.ini file (in
any standard text editor) to suit your specific requirements, and to convert the modified ini
file into binary format using the TrunkPack Downloadable Conversion Utility. For the
description of the procedure on how to convert CPT ini file into a binary dat file, refer to the
Product Reference Manual.
To load the Call Progress Tones (dat) file to the device, use the Web interface or ini file
(refer to ''Loading Auxiliary Files'' on page 231).
Note: Only the dat file can be loaded to the device.
You can create up to 32 different Call Progress Tones, each with frequency and format
attributes. The frequency attribute can be single or dual-frequency (in the range of 300 to
1980 Hz), or an Amplitude Modulated (AM). In total, up to 64 different frequencies are
supported. Only eight AM tones, in the range of 1 to 128 kHz, can be configured (the
detection range is limited to 1 to 50 kHz). Note that when a tone is composed of a single
frequency, the second frequency field must be set to zero.
The format attribute can be one of the following:
„
Continuous: (e.g., dial tone) a steady non-interrupted sound. Only the 'First Signal On
time' should be specified. All other on and off periods must be set to zero. In this case,
the parameter specifies the detection period. For example, if it equals 300, the tone is
detected after 3 seconds (300 x 10 msec). The minimum detection time is 100 msec.
„
Cadence: A repeating sequence of on and off sounds. Up to four different sets of on /
off periods can be specified.
„
Burst: A single sound followed by silence. Only the 'First Signal On time' and 'First
Signal Off time' should be specified. All other on and off periods must be set to zero.
The burst tone is detected after the off time is completed.
You can specify several tones of the same type. These additional tones are used only for
tone detection. Generation of a specific tone conforms to the first definition of the specific
tone. For example, you can define an additional dial tone by appending the second dial
tone's definition lines to the first tone definition in the ini file. The device reports dial tone
detection if either of the two tones is detected.
Version 5.6

to AM tones).
•
High Freq Level: generation level. 0 to -31 dBm. The value should be set to 32 in
the case of a single tone (not relevant to AM tones).
•
First Signal On Time [10 msec]: 'Signal On' period (in 10 msec units) for the first
cadence on-off cycle. For be continuous tones, this parameter defines the
detection period. For burst tones, it defines the tone's duration.
•
First Signal Off Time [10 msec]: 'Signal Off' period (in 10 msec units) for the first
cadence on-off cycle (for cadence tones). For burst tones, this parameter defines
the off time required after the burst tone ends and the tone detection is reported.
For continuous tones, this parameter is ignored.
•
Second Signal On Time [10 msec]: 'Signal On' period (in 10 msec units) for the

range from 1 to 128 Hz).
•
Signal Level [-dBm]: level of the tone for AM tones.
•
AM Factor [steps of 0.02]: amplitude modulation factor (valid range from 1 to 50.
Recommended values from 10 to 25).
Notes:
•
When the same frequency is used for a continuous tone and a cadence
tone, the 'Signal On Time' parameter of the continuous tone must have a
value that is greater than the 'Signal On Time' parameter of the cadence
tone. Otherwise the continuous tone is detected instead of the cadence
tone.
•
The tones frequency should differ by at least 40 Hz from one tone to
other defined tones.
For example, to configure the dial tone to 440 Hz only, enter the following text:
#Dial tone
[CALL PROGRESS TONE #1]
Tone Type=1
Tone Form =1 (continuous)
Low Freq [Hz]=440
High Freq [Hz]=0
Low Freq Level [-dBm]=10 (-10 dBm)
High Freq Level [-dBm]=32 (use 32 only if a single tone is
required)
First Signal On Time [10msec]=300; the dial tone is detected after
3 sec
First Signal Off Time [10msec]=0
Second Signal On Time [10msec]=0
Second Signal Off Time [10msec]=0
6.2
Prerecorded Tones (PRT) File
The Call Progress Tones (CPT) mechanism has several limitations such as a limited
number of predefined tones and a limited number of frequency integrations in one tone. To
overcome these limitations and provide tone generation capability that is more flexible, the
Prerecorded Tones (PRT) file can be used. If a specific prerecorded tone exists in the PRT
file, it takes precedence over the same tone that exists in the CPT file and is played instead
of it.
Note:
Version 5.6
The Prerecorded tones are used only for generation of tones. Detection of
tones is performed according to the CPT file.
337
November 2008
Mediant 2000
The PRT is a *.dat file containing a set of prerecorded tones that can be played by the
device. Up to 40 tones (totaling approximately 10 minutes) can be stored in a single PRT
file on the device's flash memory. The prerecorded tones are prepared offline using
standard recording utilities (such as CoolEditTM) and combined into a single file using
AudioCodes' TrunkPack Downloadable Conversion utility (refer to the Product Reference
Manual).
The raw data files must be recorded with the following characteristics:
„
Coders: G.711 A-law or G.711 µ-law
„
Rate: 8 kHz
„
Resolution: 8-bit
„
Channels: mono
The generated PRT file can then be loaded to the device using AudioCodes' BootP/TFTP
utility or the Web interface (refer to ''Loading Auxiliary Files'' on page 231).
The prerecorded tones are played repeatedly. This allows you to record only part of the
tone and then play the tone for the full duration. For example, if a tone has a cadence of 2
seconds on and 4 seconds off, the recorded file should contain only these 6 seconds. The
PRT module repeatedly plays this cadence for the configured duration. Similarly, a
continuous tone can be played by repeating only part of it.
6.3
Voice Prompts File
The voice announcement file contains a set of Voice Prompts that can be played by the
device during operation. The voice announcements are prepared offline using standard
recording utilities and combined into a single file using the TrunkPack Downloadable
Conversion Utility. The generated announcement file can then be loaded to the device
using the BootP/TFTP utility (refer to the Product Reference Manual).
If the size of the combined Voice Prompts file is less than 1 MB, it can permanently be
stored on flash memory. Larger files, up to 10 MB, are stored in RAM, and should be
loaded again (using BootP/TFTP utility) after the device is reset.
The Voice Prompts integrated file is a collection of raw voice recordings and / or wav files.
These recordings can be prepared using standard utilities such as CoolEdit, GoldwaveTM
and others. The raw voice recordings must be sampled at 8000 kHz / mono / 8 bit. The wav
files must be recorded with G.711μ-Law/A-Law/Linear.
When the list of recorded files is converted to a single voiceprompts.dat file, every Voice
Prompt is tagged with an ID number, starting with '1'. This ID is used later by the device to
start playing the correct announcement. Up to 1,000 Voice Prompts can be used.
AudioCodes provides a professionally recorded English (U.S.) Voice Prompts file.
¾ To generate and load the Voice Prompts file, take these 3 steps:
1.
Prepare one or more voice files using standard utilities.
2.
Use the TrunkPack Downloadable Conversion Utility to generate the voiceprompts.dat
file from the pre-recorded voice messages (refer to the Product Reference Manual).
3.
Load the voiceprompts.dat file to the device using TFTP (refer to the Product
Reference Manual) or Web interface (refer to ''Loading Auxiliary Files'' on page 231).

6. Auxiliary Configuration Files
CAS Protocol Auxiliary Files
The CAS Protocol auxiliary files contain the CAS Protocol definitions that are used for CASterminated trunks. You can either use the supplied files or construct your own files. Up to
eight files can be loaded and different files can be assigned to different trunks. The CAS
files can be loaded to the device using the Web interface or ini file (refer to ''Loading
Auxiliary Files'' on page 231).
Note: All CAS files loaded together must belong to the same Trunk Type (i.e., either
E1 or T1).
6.5
Dial Plan File
The source file for the Dial Plan configuration contains a list of known prefixes (e.g. area
codes and international telephone number patterns) for the PSTN to which the device is
connected. The device uses this information to detect end-of-dialing in certain CAS
configurations where the end-indicator (ST) is not used. The device supports up to 8,000
distinct prefixes in the dial-plan file.
The CasTrunkDialPlanName ini file parameter determines which Dial Plan (in a Dial Plan
file) to use for a specific trunk (refer to ''Configuring the Trunk Settings'' on page 82). The
Dial Plan can be loaded using the Web interface (refer to ''Loading Auxiliary Files'' on page
231).
The following is an example of an ini file that includes these definitions. This ini file is
converted (using the TrunkPack Conversion Utility - refer to the Product Reference Manual)
to a binary file and loaded to the device.
; Example of dial-plan configuration.
; This file contains two dial plans: you may specify which

The list must be prepared in a textual ini file with the following syntax:
„
Every line in the file defines a known dialing prefix and the number of digits expected
to follow that prefix. The prefix must be separated from the number of additional digits
by a comma (',').
„
Empty lines are ignored.
„
Lines beginning with a semicolon (';') are ignored.
„
Multiple dial plans may be specified in one file; A name in square brackets on a
separate line indicates the beginning of a new dial plan. Up to eight dial plans can be
defined.
„
Asterisks ('*') and number-signs ('#') can be specified as part of the prefix.
„
Numeric ranges are allowed in the prefix.
„
A numeric range is allowed in the number of additional digits.
Note: The prefixes must not overlap. Attempting to process an overlapping
configuration in the TrunkPack Conversion Utility results in an error message
specifying the problematic line.
6.6
User Information File
The User Information file is a text file that maps PBX extensions, connected to the device,
to global IP numbers. In this context, a global IP phone number (alphanumerical) serves as
a routing identifier for calls in the 'IP World'. The PBX extension uses this mapping to
emulate the behavior of an IP phone.
Note: The mapping mechanism is disabled by default and must be activated using
the parameter EnableUserInfoUsage (refer to ''Advanced Parameters'' on
page 151).
Each line in the file represents a mapping rule of a single PBX extension. Up to 1,000 rules
can be configured. Each line includes five items separated with commas. The items are
described in the table below:
Table 6-1: User Information Items

An example of a User Information file is shown in the figure below:
Figure 6-1: Example of a User Information File
Note: The last line in the User Information file must end with a carriage return (i.e.,
by pressing the <Enter> key).
The User Information file can be loaded to the device using the ini file (UserInfoFileName
parameter described in ''Auxiliary / Configuration Files Parameters'' on page 331), the Web
interface (refer to ''Loading Auxiliary Files'' on page 231), or by using the automatic update
mechanism (UserInfoFileURL, refer to the Product Reference Manual).
The maximum permissible size of the file is 108,000 bytes.
Each PBX extension registers separately (a REGISTER message is sent for each entry
only if AuthenticationMode is set to Per Endpoint) using the IP number in the From / To
headers. The REGISTER messages are sent gradually. Initially, the device sends requests
according to the maximum number of allowed SIP dialogs (configured by the parameter
NumberOfActiveDialogs). After each received response, the subsequent request is sent.
Therefore, no more than NumberOfActiveDialogs dialogs are active simultaneously. The
user name and password are used for SIP Authentication when required.
The calling number of outgoing Tel-to-IP calls is first translated to an IP number and then (if
defined), the manipulation rules are performed. The Display Name is used in the From
header in addition to the IP number. The called number of incoming IP-to-Tel calls is
translated to a PBX extension only after manipulation rules (if defined) are performed.

7. IP Telephony Capabilities
IP Telephony Capabilities
This section describes the device's IP telephony capabilities.
7.1
IP-to-IP Routing (SIP Trunking)
The AudioCodes device supports IP-to-IP VoIP call routing (or SIP trunking). The device
enables Enterprises to seamlessly connect their IP-PBX to a SIP trunk provided by an
Internet Telephony Service Provider (ITSP). The Enterprise can communicate with the
PSTN through the ITSP, which interfaces directly with PSTN. Alternatively, the device can
also provide the interface with the PSTN.
At the same time, the device can also provide an interface with the traditional PSTN
network, enabling PSTN fallback in case of IP network failure. In addition, the device
supports multiple SIP trunks, whereby if a connection to one ITSP goes down, the call can
immediately be transferred to another ITSP. By allowing multiple SIP trunks where each
trunk is designated for a specific ITSP, the device can route calls to an ITSP, based on call
destination (e.g., country code).
Therefore, in addition to providing VoIP communication within an Enterpise's LAN, the
device allows the Enterprise to communicate outside of the corporate LAN, using SIP
trunking.
The device interfaces between the Enterprise's IP-PBX and ITSP, allowing SIP trunking
implementation by the Enterprise, for example, in the following scenarios:
„
VoIP between headquarters and remote offices
„
VoIP between Enterprise and PSTN via their ITSP
For a detailed explanation on configuring IP-to-IP call routing, refer to the document IP-to-IP
SIP Call Routing Application Note.
7.2
Answer Machine Detector (AMD)
Answering Machine Detection can be useful in automatic dialing applications. In some of
these applications, it is important to detect if a human voice or answering machine is
answering the call. Answering Machine Detection can be activated and de-activated only
after a channel is already open. The direction of the detection (PSTN or IP) can be
configured (using the parameter AMDDetectionDirection - refer to ''Media Server
Parameters'' on page 300), as well as the detector detection sensitivity using the parameter
AMDDetectionSensitivity - refer to ''Configuring the IPmedia Settings'' on page 76).
Upon every Answering Machine Detection activation, the device can send a SIP INFO
message to an Application server, notifying it of one of the following:
„
Human voice has been detected
„
Answering machine has been detected
„
Silence (i.e., no voice detected) has been detected
Version 5.6

A pre-requisite for enabling the AMD feature is to set the ini file parameter
EnableDSPIPMDetectors to 1. In addition, to enable voice detection, required once the
AMD detects the answering machine, the ini file parameter EnableVoiceDetection must be
set to 1.
Note: The device's AMD feature is based on voice detection for North American
English. If you want to implement AMD in a different language or region, you
must provide AudioCodes with a database of recorded voices in the language
on which the device's AMD mechanism can base its voice detector algorithms
for detecting these voices. The data needed for an accurate calibration should
be recorded under the following guidelines:
SIP User's Manual
•
Statistical accuracy: The number of recordings should be large (i.e.,
about 100) and varied. The calls must be made to different people, at
different times. The calls must be made in the specific location in which
the device's AMD mechanism is to operate.
•
Real-life recording: The recordings should simulate real-life answering of
a person picking up the phone without the caller speaking (until the AMD
decision).
•
Normal environment interferences: The environment should almost
simulate real-life scenarios, i.e., not sterile but not too noisy either.
Interferences, for example, could include background noises of other
people talking, spikes, and car noises.

7. IP Telephony Capabilities
The SIP call flows below show an example of implementing the device's AMD feature. This
scenario example allows a third-party Application server to play a recorded voice message
to an answering machine.
1.
Upon detection by the device of the answering machine, the device sends a SIP INFO
message to the Application server:
INFO sip:[email protected]:5060 SIP/2.0
Via: SIP/2.0/UDP 172.22.168.249;branch=z9hG4bKac1566945480

2.
The device then detects the start of voice (i.e., the greeting message of the answering
machine), and then sends the following to the Application server:
INFO sip:[email protected]:5060 SIP/2.0
Via: SIP/2.0/UDP 172.22.168.249;branch=z9hG4bKac482466515

Upon detection of the end of voice (i.e., end of the greeting message of the answering
machine), the device sends the Application server the following:
INFO sip:[email protected]:5060 SIP/2.0
Via: SIP/2.0/UDP 172.22.168.249;branch=z9hG4bKac482466515

4.
The Application server now sends its message to the answering message.
If the device detects voice and not an answering machine, the SIP INFO message includes:
Type= AMD
SubType= VOICE
If the device detects silence, the SIP INFO message includes the SubType SILENT.
7.3
Stand-Alone Survivability (SAS) Feature
The device's Stand-Alone Survivability (SAS) feature ensures telephony communication
continuity (survivability) for enterprises using hosted IP services (such as IP Centrex) or IPPBX in cases of failure of these entities. In case of failure of the IP Centrex, IP-PBX servers
(or even WAN connection and access Internet modem), the enterprise typically loses its
internal telephony service at any branch, between its offices, as well as with the external
environment. In addition, typically these failures lead to the inability to make emergency
calls (e.g., 911 in North America). Despite these possible point of failures, the device's SAS
feature ensures that the Enterprise's telephony services (e.g., SIP IP phones or soft
phones) are maintained by routing calls to the PSTN (i.e., providing PSTN fallback).
The SAS feature operates in one of two modes:
„
Normal: Initially, the device's SAS agent serves as a registrar (and outbound Proxy
server) to which every VoIP CPE (e.g., IP phones) within the Enterprise's LAN
registers. The SAS agent at the same time sends all these registration requests to the
Proxy server (e.g., IP-Centrex or IP-PBX). This ensures registration redundancy by the
SAS agent for all telephony devices. Therefore, SAS agent functions as a stateful
proxy, passing all SIP requests received from the Enterprise to the Proxy and vice
versa. In parallel, the SAS agent continuously maintains a keep-alive "handshake" with
the Proxy server using SIP OPTIONS or re-INVITE messages.
„
Emergency: The SAS agent switches to Emergency mode if it detects (from the keepalive responses) that the connection with the Proxy is lost. This can occur due to Proxy
server failure or WAN problems. In this mode, when the connection with the Proxy
server is down, the SAS agent controls all internal calls within the Enterprise. In the
case of outgoing calls, the SAS agent forwards them to a local VoIP gateway (this can
be the device itself or a separate analog or digital gateway). For PSTN fallback, the
local VoIP gateway should be equipped with analog (FXO) lines or digital (E1/T1)
trunk(s) for PSTN connectivity. In this way, the Enterprise preserves its capability for
internal and outgoing calls.
SIP User's Manual
346
Document #: LTRT-68808
SIP User's Manual
7. IP Telephony Capabilities
The SAS agent continuously attempts to communicate with the Proxy using the regular
keep-alive method. After the connection is re-established, the SAS agent switches to
pre-Normal mode. In this mode, the SAS agent maintains all terminations of existing
calls while any new SIP call signaling (issued by new INVITE sessions) is transacted
to/from the Proxy server. This is accomplished using the SAS agent's database of
current active calls. After releasing all calls established during Emergency mode, the
SAS agent resumes operating in Normal mode.
For SAS implementation, the primary Proxy server for the VoIP CPE's (e.g., IP phones) is
the SAS agent (i.e., the device itself) while the IP Centrex or IP-PBX is defined as the
secondary Proxy server. For SAS configuration, the device is composed of two different
applications (SAS and Gateway), where each application has its own SIP interface
(UDP/TCP/TLS ports).

Configuring Emergency Calls
The device's SAS agent can be configured to detect a user-defined, emergency number
(e.g. 911 in North America), which it then redirects the call directly to the PSTN (through its
E1/T1 trunk). The emergency number is configured using the ini file parameter
SASEmergencyNumbers (for a detailed description, refer to ''SIP Configuration
Parameters'' on page 284).
Figure 7-1: Device's SAS Agent Redirecting Emergency Calls to PSTN
To configure support for emergency calls, configure the parameters below. The device and
the SAS feature are configured independently. If the device and the SAS agent use
different proxies, then the device's proxy server is defined using the 'Use Default Proxy'
parameter, while the SAS proxy agent is defined using the 'Proxy Set' table and
SASProxySet parameter.

Configuring the DTMF Transport Types
You can control the way DTMF digits are transported over the IP network to the remote
endpoint, by using one of the following modes:
„
Using INFO message according to Nortel IETF draft: DTMF digits are carried to the
remote side in INFO messages. To enable this mode, define the following:
•
RxDTMFOption = 0 (ini file); 'Declare RFC 2833 in SDP' field = 'No' (Web
interface -- refer to ''DTMF & Dialing Parameters'' on page 147)
•
TxDTMFOption = 1 (ini file); '1st to 5th Tx DTMF Option' field = 'INFO (Nortel)' (Web

Note that in this mode, DTMF digits are erased from the audio stream
[DTMFTransportType is automatically set to 0 ('DTMF Transport Type' field = 'DTMF
Mute' -- Web interface)].
„
Using INFO message according to Cisco’s mode: DTMF digits are carried to the
remote side in INFO messages. To enable this mode, define the following:
•
RxDTMFOption = 0 (ini file); 'Declare RFC 2833 in SDP' field = 'No' (Web

enable this mode, define the following:
•
RxDTMFOption = 3 (ini file); 'Declare RFC 2833 in SDP' field = 'Yes' (Web
interface -- refer to ''DTMF & Dialing Parameters'' on page 147)
•
TxDTMFOption = 4 (ini file); '1st to 5th Tx DTMF Option' field = 'RFC 2833' (Web
interface -- refer to ''DTMF & Dialing Parameters'' on page 147)
Note that to set the RFC 2833 payload type with a different value (other than its
default, 96) configure the RFC2833PayloadType (RFC 2833 Payload Type)
parameter. The device negotiates the RFC 2833 payload type using local and remote
SDP and sends packets using the payload type from the received SDP. The device
expects to receive RFC 2833 packets with the same payload type as configured by the
RFC2833PayloadType parameter. If the remote side doesn’t include ‘telephony-event’
in its SDP, the device sends DTMF digits in transparent mode (as part of the voice
stream).

Sending DTMF digits (in RTP packets) as part of the audio stream (DTMF Relay
is disabled): This method is typically used with G.711 coders; with other low-bit rate
(LBR) coders, the quality of the DTMF digits is reduced. To enable this mode, define
the following:
•
RxDTMFOption = 0 (ini file); 'Declare RFC 2833 in SDP' field = 'No' (Web
interface -- refer to ''DTMF & Dialing Parameters'' on page 147)
•
TxDTMFOption = 0 (ini file); '1st to 5th Tx DTMF Option' field = 'Disable' (Web
interface -- refer to ''DTMF & Dialing Parameters'' on page 147)
•
DTMFTransportType = 2 (DTMF Transport Type = Transparent DTMF)
Using INFO message according to Korea mode: DTMF digits are carried to the
remote side in INFO messages. To enable this mode, define the following:
•
RxDTMFOption = 0 (ini file); 'Declare RFC 2833 in SDP' field = 'No' (Web
interface -- refer to ''DTMF & Dialing Parameters'' on page 147)
•
TxDTMFOption = 3 (ini file); '1st to 5th Tx DTMF Option' field = 'INFO (Korea)' (Web
interface -- refer to ''DTMF & Dialing Parameters'' on page 147)
Note that in this mode, DTMF digits are erased from the audio stream
(DTMFTransportType is automatically set to 0 (DTMF Mute)).
Notes:
•
The device is always ready to receive DTMF packets over IP in all
possible transport modes: INFO messages, NOTIFY, and RFC 2833 (in
proper payload type) or as part of the audio stream.
•
To exclude RFC 2833 Telephony event parameter from the device's
SDP, set RxDTMFOption to 0 in the ini file.
The following parameters affect the way the device handles the DTMF digits:
„
TxDTMFOption, RxDTMFOption, and RFC2833PayloadType (described in ''DTMF &
Dialing Parameters'' on page 147)
„
MGCPDTMFDetectionPoint, DTMFVolume, DTMFTransportType, DTMFDigitLength,

Fax and Modem Capabilities
7.5.1
Fax/Modem Operating Modes
The device supports two modes of operations:
„
Fax / modem negotiation that isn’t performed during the establishment of the call.
„
VBD mode for V.152 implementation (refer to ''Supporting V.152 Implementation'' on
page 357): fax / modem capabilities are negotiated between the device and the remote
endpoint at the establishment of the call. During a call, when a fax / modem signal is
detected, transition from voice to VBD (or T.38) is automatically performed and no
additional SIP signaling is required. If negotiation fails (i.e., no match is achieved for
any of the transport capabilities), fallback to existing logic occurs (according to the
parameter IsFaxUsed).

Fax/Modem Transport Modes
The device supports the following transport modes for fax per modem type
(V.22/V.23/Bell/V.32/V.34):
„
T.38 fax relay (refer to ''Fax Relay Mode'' on page 351)
„
Fax and modem bypass: a proprietary method that uses a high bit rate coder (refer to
''Fax/Modem Bypass Mode'' on page 352)
„
NSE Cisco’s Pass-through bypass mode for fax and modem (refer to ''Fax / Modem
NSE Mode'' on page 353)
„
Transparent: passing the fax / modem signal in the current voice coder (refer to ''Fax /
Modem Transparent Mode'' on page 354)
„
Transparent with events: passing the fax / modem signal in the current voice coder
with adaptations (refer to ''Fax / Modem Transparent with Events Mode'' on page 355)
„
G.711 Transport: switching to G.711 when fax/modem is detected (refer to ''G.711 Fax
/ Modem Transport Mode'' on page 355)
„
Fax fallback to G.711 if T.38 is not supported (refer to ''Fax Fallback'' on page 356)
‘Adaptations’ refer to automatic reconfiguration of certain DSP features for handling
fax/modem streams differently than voice.
7.5.2.1
T.38 Fax Relay Mode
In Fax Relay mode, fax signals are transferred using the T.38 protocol. T.38 is an ITU
standard for sending fax across IP networks in real-time mode. The device currently
supports only the T.38 UDP syntax.
T.38 can be configured in the following ways:
„
Switching to T.38 mode using SIP Re-INVITE messages (refer to ''Switching to T.38
Mode using SIP Re-INVITE'' on page 351)
„
Automatically switching to T.38 mode without using SIP Re-INVITE messages (refer to
''Automatically Switching to T.38 Mode without SIP Re-INVITE'' on page 352)
When fax transmission ends, the reverse switching from fax relay to voice is automatically
performed at both the local and remote endpoints.
You can change the fax rate declared in the SDP, using the parameter FaxRelayMaxRate
(this parameter doesn’t affect the actual transmission rate). In addition, you can enable or
disable Error Correction Mode (ECM) fax mode using the FaxRelayECMEnable parameter.
When using T.38 mode, you can define a redundancy feature to improve fax transmission
over congested IP networks. This feature is activated using the FaxRelayRedundancyDepth
and FaxRelayEnhancedRedundancyDepth parameters. Although this is a proprietary
redundancy scheme, it should not create problems when working with other T.38 decoders.
7.5.2.1.1 Switching to T.38 Mode using SIP Re-INVITE
In the Switching to T.38 Mode using SIP Re-INVITE mode, upon detection of a fax signal,
the terminating device negotiates T.38 capabilities using a Re-INVITE message. If the farend device doesn't support T.38, the fax fails. In this mode, the parameter
FaxTransportMode is ignored.
Version 5.6

To configure T.38 mode using SIP Re-INVITE messages, set IsFaxUsed to 1. Additional
configuration parameters include the following:
„
FaxRelayEnhancedRedundancyDepth
„
FaxRelayRedundancyDepth
„
FaxRelayECMEnable
„
FaxRelayMaxRate
7.5.2.1.2 Automatically Switching to T.38 Mode without SIP Re-INVITE
In the Automatically Switching to T.38 Mode without SIP Re-INVITE mode, when a fax
signal is detected, the channel automatically switches from the current voice coder to
answer tone mode, and then to T.38-compliant fax relay mode.
To configure automatic T.38 mode, perform the following configurations:
7.5.2.2
„
IsFaxUsed = 0
„
FaxTransportMode = 1
„
Additional configuration parameters:
•
FaxRelayEnhancedRedundancyDepth
•
FaxRelayRedundancyDepth
•
FaxRelayECMEnable
•
FaxRelayMaxRate
Fax/Modem Bypass Mode
In this proprietary mode, when fax or modem signals are detected, the channel
automatically switches from the current voice coder to a high bit-rate coder (according to
the parameter FaxModemBypassCoderType). In addition, the channel is automatically
reconfigured with the following fax / modem adaptations:
„
Disables silence suppression
„
Enables echo cancellation for fax
„
Disables echo cancellation for modem
„
Performs certain jitter buffering optimizations
The network packets generated and received during the bypass period are regular voice
RTP packets (per the selected bypass coder), but with a different RTP payload type
(according to the parameters FaxBypassPayloadType and ModemBypassPayloadType).
During the bypass period, the coder uses the packing factor, which is defined by the
parameter FaxModemBypassM. The packing factor determines the number of coder
payloads (each the size of FaxModemBypassBasicRTPPacketInterval) that are used to
generate a single fax/modem bypass packet. When fax/modem transmission ends, the
reverse switching, from bypass coder to regular voice coder is performed.
To configure fax / modem bypass mode, perform the following configurations:
„
IsFaxUsed = 0
„
FaxTransportMode = 2
„
V21ModemTransportType = 2
„
V22ModemTransportType = 2

FaxModemBypassDJBufMinDelay
Note: When the device is configured for modem bypass and T.38 fax, V.21 lowspeed modems are not supported and fail as a result.
Tip:
7.5.2.3
When the remote (non-AudioCodes’) gateway uses G711 coder for voice and
doesn’t change the coder payload type for fax or modem transmission, it is
recommended to use the Bypass mode with the following configuration:
•
EnableFaxModemInbandNetworkDetection = 1
•
FaxModemBypassCoderType = same coder used for voice
•
FaxModemBypassM = same interval as voice
•
ModemBypassPayloadType = 8 if voice coder is A-Law; 0 if voice coder
is Mu-Law
Fax / Modem NSE Mode
In this mode, fax and modem signals are transferred using Cisco-compatible Pass-through
bypass mode. Upon detection of fax or modem answering tone signal, the terminating
device sends three to six special NSE RTP packets (using NSEpayloadType, usually 100).
These packets signal the remote device to switch to G.711 coder (according to the
parameter FaxModemBypassCoderType). After a few NSE packets are exchanged
between the devices, both devices start using G.711 packets with standard payload type (8
for G.711 A-Law and 0 for G.711 Mu-Law). In this mode, no Re-INVITE messages are sent.
The voice channel is optimized for fax/modem transmission (same as for usual bypass
mode).
The parameters defining payload type for the proprietary AudioCodes’ Bypass mode
FaxBypassPayloadType and ModemBypassPayloadType are not used with NSE Bypass.
When configured for NSE mode, the device includes in its SDP the following line:
a=rtpmap:100 X-NSE/8000
(where 100 is the NSE payload type)
The Cisco gateway must include the following definition: "modem passthrough nse payloadtype 100 codec g711alaw".

Fax / Modem Transparent Mode
In this mode, fax and modem signals are transferred using the current voice coder without
notifications to the user and without automatic adaptations. It's possible to use the Profiles
mechanism (refer to ''Configuring the Profile Definitions'' on page 190) to apply certain
adaptations to the channel used for fax / modem (e.g., to use the coder G.711, to set the
jitter buffer optimization factor to 13, and to enable echo cancellation for fax and disable it
for modem).
To configure fax / modem transparent mode, use the following parameters:
„
IsFaxUsed = 0
„
FaxTransportMode = 0
„
V21ModemTransportType = 0

Echo Canceller = on (or off, for modems)
„
Echo Canceller Non-Linear Processor Mode = off
„
Jitter buffering optimizations

„
V34ModemTransportType = 3
„
BellModemTransportType = 3
G.711 Fax / Modem Transport Mode
In this mode, when the terminating device detects fax or modem signals (CED or AnsAM), it
sends a Re-INVITE message to the originating device requesting it to re-open the channel
in G.711 VBD with the following adaptations:
„
Echo Canceller = off
„
Silence Compression = off
„
Echo Canceller Non-Linear Processor Mode = off
„
Dynamic Jitter Buffer Minimum Delay = 40
„
Dynamic Jitter Buffer Optimization Factor = 13
After a few seconds upon detection of fax V.21 preamble or super G3 fax signals, the
device sends a second Re-INVITE enabling the echo canceller (the echo canceller is
disabled only on modem transmission).
A ‘gpmd’ attribute is added to the SDP according to the following format:
„
For G.711A-law: a=gpmd:0 vbd=yes;ecan=on (or off, for modems)
„
For G.711 µ-law: a=gpmd:8 vbd=yes;ecan=on (or off for modems)
The parameters FaxTransportMode and VxxModemTransportType are ignored and
automatically set to the mode called ‘transparent with events’.
To configure fax / modem transparent mode, set IsFaxUsed to 2.

Fax Fallback
In this mode, when the terminating device detects a fax signal, it sends a Re-INVITE
message to the originating device with T.38. If the remote device doesn’t support T.38
(replies with SIP response 415 'Media Not Supported'), the device sends a new Re-INVITE
with G.711 VBD with the following adaptations:
„
Echo Canceller = on
„
Silence Compression = off
„
Echo Canceller Non-Linear Processor Mode = off
„
Dynamic Jitter Buffer Minimum Delay = 40
„
Dynamic Jitter Buffer Optimization Factor = 13
When the device initiates a fax session using G.711, a ‘gpmd’ attribute is added to the SDP
according to the following format:
„
For G.711A-law: a=gpmd:0 vbd=yes;ecan=on
„
For G.711 µ-law: a=gpmd:8 vbd=yes;ecan=on
In this mode, the parameter FaxTransportMode is ignored and automatically set to
‘transparent’.
To configure fax fallback mode, set IsFaxUsed to 3.
7.5.3
Supporting V.34 Faxes
Unlike T.30 fax machines, V.34 fax machines have no relay standard to transmit data over
IP to the remote side. Therefore, the device provides the following operation modes for
transporting V.34 fax data over the IP:
„
Using bypass mechanism for V.34 fax transmission (refer to ''Using Bypass
Mechanism for V.34 Fax Transmission'' on page 356)
„
Using relay mode, i.e., fallback to T.38 (refer to ''Using Relay mode for both T.30 and
V.34 faxes'' on page 357)
Using the ini file parameter V34FaxTransportType, you can determine whether to pass V.34
Fax-over-T.38 fallback to T.30, or use Bypass over the High Bit Rate coder (e.g. PCM ALaw).
Note: The CNG detector is disabled (CNGDetectorMode = 0) in all the subsequent
examples.
7.5.3.1
Using Bypass Mechanism for V.34 Fax Transmission
In this proprietary scenario, the device uses bypass (or NSE) mode to transmit V.34 faxes,
enabling the full utilization of its speed.
Configure the following parameters to use bypass mode for both T.30 and V.34 faxes:
„
FaxTransportMode = 2 (Bypass)
„
V34ModemTransportType = 2 (Modem bypass)
„
V32ModemTransportType = 2

Using Relay mode for both T.30 and V.34 faxes
In this scenario, V.34 fax machines are forced to use their backward compatibility with T.30
faxes and operate in the slower T.30 mode.
Use the following parameters to use T.38 mode for both V.34 faxes and T.30 faxes:
7.5.4
„
FaxTransportMode = 1 (Relay)
„
V34ModemTransportType = 0 (Transparent)
„
V32ModemTransportType = 0
„
V23ModemTransportType = 0
„
V22ModemTransportType = 0
Supporting V.152 Implementation
The device supports the ITU-T recommendation V.152 (Procedures for Supporting VoiceBand Data over IP Networks). Voice-band data (VBD) is the transport of modem, facsimile,
and text telephony signals over a voice channel of a packet network with a codec
appropriate for such signals.
For V.152 capability, the device supports T.38 as well as VBD codecs (i.e., G.711 A-law
and G.711 μ-law). The selection of capabilities is performed using the coders table (refer to
''Coders'' on page 144).
When in VBD mode for V.152 implementation, support is negotiated between the device
and the remote endpoint at the establishment of the call. During this time, initial exchange
of call capabilities is exchanged in the outgoing SDP. These capabilities include whether
VBD is supported and associated RTP payload types ('gpmd' SDP attribute), supported
codecs, and packetization periods for all codec payload types ('ptime' SDP attribute). After
this initial negotiation, no Re-INVITE messages are necessary as both endpoints are
synchronized in terms of the other side's capabilities. If negotiation fails (i.e., no match was
achieved for any of the transport capabilities), fallback to existing logic occurs (according to
the parameter IsFaxUsed).
Version 5.6

Below is an example of media descriptions of an SDP indicating support for V.152.
v=0

c=IN IP4 <IPAddressA
m=audio <udpPort A> RTP/AVP 18 0
a=ptime:10
a=rtpmap:96 PCMU/8000
a=gpmd: 96 vbd=yes
In the example above, V.152 implementation is supported (using the dynamic payload type
96 and G.711 u-law as the VBD codec) as well as the voice codecs G.711 μ-law and
G.729.
Instead of using VBD transport mode, the V.152 implementation can use alternative relay
fax transport methods (e.g., fax relay over IP using T.38). The preferred V.152 transport
method is indicated by the SDP ‘pmft’ attribute. Omission of this attribute in the SDP
content means that VBD mode is the preferred transport mechanism for voice-band data.
To configure T.38 mode, use the CoderName parameter.
7.6
Event Notification using X-Detect Header
The device supports the sending of notifications to a remote party notifying the occurrence
(or detection) of certain events on the media stream. Event detection and notifications is
performed using the X-Detect SIP message header, and only when establishing a SIP
dialog.
For supporting some events, certain device configurations need to be performed. The table
below lists the support event types (and subtypes) and the corresponding device
configurations, if required:

7. IP Telephony Capabilities
The X-Detect event notification process is as follows:
1.
For IP-to-Tel or Tel-to-IP calls, the device receives a SIP request message (using the
X-Detect header) that the remote party wishes to detect events on the media stream.
For incoming (IP-to-Tel) calls, the request must be indicated in the initial INVITE and
responded to either in the 183 response (for early dialogs) or in the 200 OK response
(for confirmed dialogs). For outgoing calls (Tel-to-IP), the request may be received in
the 183 (for early dialogs) and responded to in the PRACK, or received in the 200 OK
(for confirmed dialogs) and responded to in the ACK.
2.
Once the device receives such a request, it sends a SIP response message (using the
X-Detect header) to the remote party, listing all supported events that can be detected.
The absence of the X-Detect header indicates that no detections are available.
3.
Each time the device detects a supported event, the event is notified to the remote
party, by sending an INFO message with the following message body:
•
Content-Type: application/X-DETECT
•
Type = [AMD | CPT | FAX | PTT…]
•
Subtype = xxx (according to the defined subtypes of each type)

RTP Multiplexing (ThroughPacket)
The device supports a proprietary method to aggregate RTP streams from several channels
to reduce the bandwidth overhead caused by the attached Ethernet, IP, UDP, and RTP
headers, and to reduce the packet / data transmission rate. This option reduces the load on
network routers and can typically save 50% (e.g., for G.723) on IP bandwidth. RTP
Multiplexing (ThroughPacket™) is accomplished by aggregating payloads from several
channels that are sent to the same destination IP address into a single IP packet.
RTP multiplexing can be applied to the entire device (refer to ''Configuring the RTP / RTCP
Settings'' on page 71) or to specific IP destinations using the IP Profile feature (refer to ''IP
Profile Settings'' on page 193).
To enable RTP Multiplexing, set the parameter RemoteBaseUDPPort to a nonzero value.
Note that the value of RemoteBaseUDPPort on the local device must equal the value of
BaseUDPPort of the remote device. The device uses these parameters to identify and
distribute the payloads from the received multiplexed IP packet to the relevant channels.
In RTP Multiplexing mode, the device uses a single UDP port for all incoming multiplexed
packets and a different port for outgoing packets. These ports are configured using the
parameters L1L1ComplexTxUDPPort and L1L1ComplexRxUDPPort.
When RTP Multiplexing is used, call statistics aren’t available (since there is no RTCP
flow).
Notes:
7.8
•
RTP Multiplexing must be enabled on both devices.
•
When VLANs are imlemented, the RTP Multiplexing mechanism is not
supported.
Dynamic Jitter Buffer Operation
Voice frames are transmitted at a fixed rate. If the frames arrive at the other end at the
same rate, voice quality is perceived as good. In many cases, however, some frames can
arrive slightly faster or slower than the other frames. This is called jitter (delay variation),
and degrades the perceived voice quality. To minimize this problem, the device uses a jitter
buffer. The jitter buffer collects voice packets, stores them and sends them to the voice
processor in evenly spaced intervals.
The device uses a dynamic jitter buffer that can be configured using the following two
parameters:
„
Minimum delay: DJBufMinDelay (0 msec to 150 msec)
Defines the starting jitter capacity of the buffer. For example, at 0 msec, there is no
buffering at the start. At the default level of 10 msec, the device always buffers
incoming packets by at least 10 msec worth of voice frames.
„
Optimization Factor: DJBufOptFactor (0 to 12, 13)
Defines how the jitter buffer tracks to changing network conditions. When set at its
maximum value of 12, the dynamic buffer aggressively tracks changes in delay (based
on packet loss statistics) to increase the size of the buffer and doesn’t decay back
down. This results in the best packet error performance, but at the cost of extra delay.
At the minimum value of 0, the buffer tracks delays only to compensate for clock drift
and quickly decays back to the minimum level. This optimizes the delay performance
but at the expense of a higher error rate.
SIP User's Manual
360
Document #: LTRT-68808
SIP User's Manual
7. IP Telephony Capabilities
The default settings of 10 msec Minimum delay and 10 Optimization Factor should provide
a good compromise between delay and error rate. The jitter buffer ‘holds’ incoming packets
for 10 msec before making them available for decoding into voice. The coder polls frames
from the buffer at regular intervals in order to produce continuous speech. As long as
delays in the network do not change (jitter) by more than 10 msec from one packet to the
next, there is always a sample in the buffer for the coder to use. If there is more than 10
msec of delay at any time during the call, the packet arrives too late. The coder tries to
access a frame and is not able to find one. The coder must produce a voice sample even if
a frame is not available. It therefore compensates for the missing packet by adding a BadFrame-Interpolation (BFI) packet. This loss is then flagged as the buffer being too small.
The dynamic algorithm then causes the size of the buffer to increase for the next voice
session. The size of the buffer may decrease again if the device notices that the buffer is
not filling up as much as expected. At no time does the buffer decrease to less than the
minimum size configured by the Minimum delay parameter.
For certain scenarios, the Optimization Factor is set to 13: One of the purposes of the
Jitter Buffer mechanism is to compensate for clock drift. If the two sides of the VoIP call are
not synchronized to the same clock source, one RTP source generates packets at a lower
rate, causing under-runs at the remote Jitter Buffer. In normal operation (optimization factor
0 to 12), the Jitter Buffer mechanism detects and compensates for the clock drift by
occasionally dropping a voice packet or by adding a BFI packet.
Fax and modem devices are sensitive to small packet losses or to added BFI packets.
Therefore, to achieve better performance during modem and fax calls, the Optimization
Factor should be set to 13. In this special mode the clock drift correction is performed less
frequently - only when the Jitter Buffer is completely empty or completely full. When such
condition occurs, the correction is performed by dropping several voice packets
simultaneously or by adding several BFI packets simultaneously, so that the Jitter Buffer
returns to its normal condition.
7.9
Configuring Alternative Routing (Based on
Connectivity and QoS)
The Alternative Routing feature enables reliable routing of Tel-to-IP calls when a Proxy isn’t
used. The device periodically checks the availability of connectivity and suitable Quality of
Service (QoS) before routing. If the expected quality cannot be achieved, an alternative IP
route for the prefix (phone number) is selected.
Note: If the alternative routing destination is the device itself, the call can be
configured to be routed back to one of the device's trunk groups and thus,
back into the PSTN (PSTN Fallback).
7.9.1
Alternative Routing Mechanism
When a Tel-to-IP call is routed through the device, the call’s destination number is
compared to the list of prefixes defined in the 'Tel to IP Routing' table (described in ''Tel to
IP Routing Table'' on page 175). The 'Tel to IP Routing' table is scanned for the destination
number’s prefix starting at the top of the table. For this reason, enter the main IP route
above any alternative route. When an appropriate entry (destination number matches one
of the prefixes) is found, the prefix’s corresponding destination IP address is verified. If the
destination IP address is disallowed (or if the original call fails and the device has made two
additional attempts to establish the call without success), an alternative route is searched in
the table. , after which an alternative route is used.
Version 5.6
361
November 2008
Mediant 2000
Destination IP address is disallowed if no ping to the destination is available (ping is
continuously initiated every seven seconds), when an inappropriate level of QoS was
detected, or when a DNS host name is not resolved. The QoS level is calculated according
to delay or packet loss of previously ended calls. If no call statistics are received for two
minutes, the QoS information is reset.
7.9.2
Determining the Availability of Destination IP Addresses
To determine the availability of each destination IP address (or host name) in the routing
table, one (or all) of the following (configurable) methods are applied:
7.9.3
„
Connectivity: The destination IP address is queried periodically (currently only by
ping).
„
QoS: The QoS of an IP connection is determined according to RTCP statistics of
previous calls. Network delay (in msec) and network packet loss (in percentage) are
separately quantified and compared to a certain (configurable) threshold. If the
calculated amounts (of delay or packet loss) exceed these thresholds, the IP
connection is disallowed.
„
DNS resolution: When host name is used (instead of IP address) for the destination
route, it is resolved to an IP address by a DNS server. Connectivity and QoS are then
applied to the resolved IP address.
PSTN Fallback as a Special Case of Alternative Routing
The PSTN Fallback feature enables the device to redirect PSTN originated calls back to the
legacy PSTN network if a destination IP route is unsuitable (disallowed) for voice traffic at a
specific time. To enable PSTN fallback, assign the device's IP address as an alternative
route to the desired prefixes. Note that calls (now referred to as IP-to-Tel calls) can be rerouted to a specific trunk group using the Routing parameters (refer to ''IP to Trunk Group
Routing'' on page 181).
7.9.4

Trunk-to-Trunk Routing Example
This example describes two devices, each interfacing with the PSTN through four E1
spans. Device A is configured to route all incoming Tel-to-IP calls to Device B. Device B
generates calls to the PSTN on the same E1 trunk on which the call was originally received
(in Device A).
„
Device A IP address: 192.168.3.50
„
Device B IP address: 192.168.3.51
The ini file parameters configuration for devices A and B include the following:
1.
2.
At both devices, define four trunk groups, each with 30 B-channels:
•
TrunkGroup_1 = 0/1-31,1000
•
TrunkGroup_2 = 1/1-31,2000
•
TrunkGroup_3 = 2/1-31,3000
•
TrunkGroup_4 = 3/1-31,4000
At Device A, add the originating Trunk Group ID as a prefix to the destination number
for Tel-to-IP calls:
AddTrunkGroupAsPrefix = 1
3.
At Device A, route all incoming PSTN calls starting with prefixes 1, 2, 3, and 4, to the
IP address of Device B:
•
Prefix = 1, 192.168.3.51
•
Prefix = 2, 192.168.3.51
•
Prefix = 3, 192.168.3.51
•
Prefix = 4, 192.168.3.51
Note: You can also define Prefix = *,192.168.3.51, instead of the four lines above.
4.
Version 5.6
At Device B, route IP-to-PSTN calls to Trunk Group ID according to the first digit of the
called number:
•
PSTNPrefix = 1,1
•
PSTNPrefix = 2,2
367
November 2008
Mediant 2000
5.
7.13
•
PSTNPrefix = 3,4
•
PSTNPrefix = 4,4
At Device B, remove the first digit from each IP-to-PSTN number before it is used in an
outgoing call: NumberMapIP2Tel = *,1
Proxy or Registrar Registration Example
Below is an example of Proxy and Registrar Registration:
REGISTER sip:servername SIP/2.0
VIA: SIP/2.0/UDP 212.179.22.229;branch=z9hG4bRaC7AU234
From: <sip:GWRegistrationName@sipgatewayname>;tag=1c29347
To: <sip:GWRegistrationName@sipgatewayname>
Call-ID: [email protected]
Seq: 1 REGISTER
Expires: 3600
Contact: sip:[email protected]
Content-Length: 0
The ‘servername’ string is defined according to the following rules:
„
The "servername" is equal to "RegistrarName" if configured. The "RegistrarName" can
be any string.
„
Otherwise, the "servername" is equal to "RegistrarIP" (either FQDN or numerical IP
address), if configured.
„
Otherwise, the "servername" is equal to "ProxyName" if configured. The "ProxyName"
can be any string.
„
Otherwise, the "servername" is equal to "ProxyIP" (either FQDN or numerical IP
address).
The parameter GWRegistrationName can be any string. This parameter is used only if
registration is per device. If the parameter is not defined, the parameter UserName is used
instead. If the registration is per endpoint, the endpoint phone number is used.
The 'sipgatewayname' parameter (defined in the ini file or Web interface) can be any string.
Some Proxy servers require that the 'sipgatewayname' (in REGISTER messages) is set
equal to the Registrar / Proxy IP address or to the Registrar / Proxy domain name. The
'sipgatewayname' parameter can be overwritten by the TrunkGroupSettings_GatewayName
value if the TrunkGroupSettings_RegistrationMode is set to 'Per Endpoint'.
REGISTER messages are sent to the Registrar's IP address (if configured) or to the Proxy's
IP address. A single message is sent once per device, or messages are sent per B-channel
according to the parameter AuthenticationMode. There is also an option to configure
registration mode per Trunk Group using the TrunkGroupSettings table. The registration
request is resent according to the parameter RegistrationTimeDivider. For example, if
RegistrationTimeDivider = 70 (%) and Registration Expires time = 3600, the device resends
its registration request after 3600 x 70% = 2520 sec. The default value of
RegistrationTimeDivider is 50%.
If registration per B-channel is selected, on device startup the device sends REGISTER
requests according to the maximum number of allowed SIP dialogs (configured by the
parameter NumberOfActiveDialogs). After each received response, the subsequent
REGISTER request is sent.

7.14.2 SIP Authentication Example
The device supports basic and digest (MD5) authentication types, according to SIP RFC
3261 standard. A proxy server might require authentication before forwarding an INVITE
message. A Registrar/Proxy server may also require authentication for client registration. A
proxy replies to an unauthenticated INVITE with a 407 Proxy Authorization Required
response, containing a Proxy-Authenticate header with the form of the challenge. After
sending an ACK for the 407, the user agent can then resend the INVITE with a ProxyAuthorization header containing the credentials.
User agent, redirect or registrar servers typically use 401 Unauthorized response to
challenge authentication containing a WWW-Authenticate header, and expect the reINVITE to contain an Authorization header.
The following example describes the Digest Authentication procedure, including
computation of user agent credentials:
1.
Version 5.6
The REGISTER request is sent to Registrar/Proxy server for registration, as follows:

7.14.3 SIP Trunking between Enterprise and ITSPs
By implementing the device's enhanced and flexible routing configuration capabilities using
Proxy Sets, IP Groups, and Accounts, you can "design" complex routing schemes. This
section provides an example of an elaborate routing scheme for SIP trunking between an
Enterprise's PBX and two Internet Telephony Service Providers (ITSP), using AudioCodes'
device.
Version 5.6
373
November 2008
Mediant 2000
Scenario: In this example, the Enterprise wishes to connect its TDM PBX to two different
ITSPs, by implementing a device in its network environment. It's main objective is for the
device to route Tel-to-IP calls to these ITSPs according to a dial plan. The device is to
register (on behalf of the PBX) to each ITSP, which implements two servers for redundancy
and load balancing. The Register messages are to use different URI's in the From, To, and
Contact headers per ITSP. In addition, all calls dialed from the Enterprise PBX with prefix
'02' is sent to the local PSTN. The figure below illustrates the example setup:
Figure 7-3: Example Setup for Routing Between ITSP and Enterprise PBX
¾ To configure call routing between Enterprise and two ITSPs using
the device, take these 8 steps:
1.
Enable the device to register to a Proxy / Registrar server, using the parameter
IsRegisterNeeded in the 'Proxy & Registration' page (refer to ''Proxy & Registration
Parameters'' on page 132).

In the 'Proxy Sets Table' page (refer to ''Proxy Sets Table'' on page 141), configure two
Proxy Sets and for each, enable Proxy Keep-Alive (using SIP OPTIONS) and 'round
robin' load-balancing method:
•
Proxy Set #1 includes two IP addresses of the first ITSP (ITSP 1) - 10.33.37.77
and 10.33.37.79 - and using UDP.
•
Proxy Set #2 includes two IP addresses of the second ITSP (ITSP 2) - 10.8.8.40
and 10.8.8.10 - and using TCP.
The figure below displays the configuration of Proxy Set ID #1. Perform similar
configuration for Proxy Set ID #2, but using different IP addresses.

In the 'IP Group Table' page (refer to ''Configuring the IP Groups'' on page 201),
configure the two IP Groups #1 and #2. Assign Proxy Sets #1 and #2 to IP Groups #1
and #2 respectively.

In the 'Account Table' page (refer to ''Configuring the Account Table'' on page 204),
configure the two Accounts for PBX trunk registration to ITSPs using the same Trunk
Group (i.e., ID #1), but different serving IP Groups #1 and #2. For each account, define
user name, password, and hostname, and ContactUser. The Register messages use
different URI's (Hostname and ContactUser) in the From, To, and Contact headers per
ITSP. Enable registration for both accounts. .

Working with Supplementary Services
The device supports the following supplementary services:
„
Call Hold and Retrieve (refer to ''Call Hold and Retrieve'' on page 377).
„
Call Transfer (refer to ''Call Transfer'' on page 377).
„
Call Forward: when a callRerouting IE is received in a FACILITY message in response
to an outgoing SETUP message, the device sends a 3xx response to the IP side,
including the callRerouting destination number - only applicable to QSIG protocol
„
Call Waiting
The device SIP users are only required to enable the Hold and Transfer features. By
default, the Call Forward (supporting 30x redirecting responses) and Call Waiting (receipt of
182 response) features are enabled.
Notes:
•
All call participants must support the specific supplementary service that
is used.
•
When working with certain application servers (such as BroadSoft’s
BroadWorks) in client server mode (the application server controls all
supplementary services and keypad features by itself), the device's
supplementary services must be disabled.
7.15.1 Call Hold and Retrieve
Hold and Retrieve:
„
The party that initiates the hold is called the holding party; the other party is called the
held party. The device can't initiate Call Hold, but it can respond to hold requests and
as such, it's a help party.
„
After a successful Hold, the holding party hears a Dial tone (HELD_TONE defined in
the device's Call Progress Tones file).
„
After a successful retrieve, the voice is connected again.
„
The hold and retrieve functionalities are implemented by Re-INVITE messages. The IP
address 0.0.0.0 as the connection IP address or the string ‘a=inactive’ in the received
Re-INVITE SDP cause the device to enter Hold state and to play the Held tone
(configured in the device) to the PBX/PSTN. If the string ‘a=sendonly’ is received in the
SDP message, the device stops sending RTP packets, but continues to listen to the
incoming RTP packets. Usually, the remote party plays, in this scenario, Music on Hold
(MOH) and the device forwards the MOH to the held party.
You can also configure the device to keep a call on-hold for a user-defined time after which
the call is disconnected, using the ini file parameter HeldTimeout (refer to ''Supplementary
Services'' on page 159).

7.15.2 Call Transfer
There are two types of call transfers:
„
Consultation Transfer:
The common way to perform a consultation transfer is as follows:
In the transfer scenario there are three parties: Party A = transferring, Party B =
transferred, Party C = transferred to.
•
A Calls B.
•
B answers.
•
A presses the hook-flash button and places B on-hold (party B hears a hold tone).
•
A dials C.
•
After A completes dialing C, A can perform the transfer by on-hooking the A
phone.
•
After the transfer is complete, B and C parties are engaged in a call.
The transfer can be initiated at any of the following stages of the call between A and C:
„
•
Just after completing dialing C phone number - transfer from setup.
•
While hearing Ringback – transfer from alert.
•
While speaking to C - transfer from active.
Blind Transfer:
Blind transfer is performed after we have a call between A and B, and party A decides
to immediately transfer the call to C without speaking with C. The result of the transfer
is a call between B and C (just like consultation transfer only skipping the consultation
stage).
Note: The device doesn't initiate call transfer, it only responds to call transfer
requests.

Ethernet Interface Configuration
The device's Ethernet connection can be configured (using the ini file parameter
EthernetPhyConfiguration) for one of the following modes:
„
„
Manual mode:
•
10Base-T Half-Duplex or 10Base-T Full-Duplex
•
100Base-TX Half-Duplex or 100Base-TX Full-Duplex
Auto-Negotiation: chooses common transmission parameters such as speed and
duplex mode
The Ethernet connection should be configured according to the following recommended
guidelines:
„
When the device's Ethernet port is configured for Auto-Negotiation, the opposite port
must also operate in Auto-Negotiation. Auto-Negotiation falls back to Half-Duplex
mode when the opposite port is not in Auto-Negotiation mode, but the speed (i.e.,
10/100Base-T or 1000Base-TX) in this mode is always configured correctly.
Configuring the device to Auto-Negotiation mode while the opposite port is set
manually to Full-Duplex is invalid as it causes the device to fall back to Half-Duplex
mode while the opposite port is Full-Duplex. Any mismatch configuration can yield
unexpected functioning of the Ethernet connection.
„
When configuring the device's Ethernet port manually, the same mode (i.e., Half
Duplex or Full Duplex) and speed must be configured on the remote Ethernet port. In
addition, when the device's Ethernet port is configured manually, it is invalid to set the
remote port to Auto-Negotiation. Any mismatch configuration can yield unexpected
functioning of the Ethernet connection.
„
It's recommended to configure the port for best performance and highest bandwidth
(i.e., Full Duplex with 100Base-TX), but at the same time adhering to the guidelines
listed above.
Note that when remote configuration is performed, the device should be in the correct
Ethernet setting prior to the time this parameter takes effect. When, for example, the device
is configured using BootP/TFTP, the device performs many Ethernet-based transactions
prior to reading the ini file containing this device configuration parameter. To resolve this
problem, the device always uses the last Ethernet setup mode configured. In this way, if
you want to configure the device to operate in a new network environment in which the
current Ethernet setting of the device is invalid, you should first modify this parameter in the
current network so that the new setting holds next time the device is restarted. After
reconfiguration has completed, connect the device to the new network and restart it. As a
result, the remote configuration process that occurs in the new network uses a valid
Ethernet configuration.

8.2
Ethernet Interface Redundancy
The device supports an Ethernet redundancy scheme. At the beginning of the start-up
procedure, the device tests whether the ‘primary’ Ethernet interface is connected, by
checking the existence of the Ethernet link carrier. If it's connected, the start-up procedure
commences as usual. If not, the start-up application tries the ‘secondary’ Ethernet interface.
If this interface is connected, the whole start-up procedure is performed using it. If both
interfaces are not connected, the start-up procedure commences using the parameters,
tables, and software residing on the device's non-volatile memory. Note that Ethernet
switchover occurs only once during the start-up procedure (at the beginning). If the Ethernet
interface fails after the selection is made, the device does not switch over to the second
port.
After start-up is complete and the operational software is running, the device continues to
use the Ethernet port used for software upload. The device switches over from one
Ethernet port to the other each time an Ethernet link carrier-loss is detected on the active
Ethernet port, and if the Ethernet link of the other port is operational. Switchover occurs
only once per link loss (i.e., the ‘secondary’ interface stays the active one even if the
‘primary’ interface has returned to life). After start-up, the device generates a gratuitous
ARP message each time a switchover occurs.
For correct functionality of the redundancy mechanism, it's recommended to configure both
links to the same mode. It is essential that both link partners (primary and secondary) have
the same capabilities. This ensures that whenever a switchover occurs, the device is able
to provide at least the same Ethernet services as were provided prior to the switchover. In
addition, it's recommended to set the physical secondary link prior to resetting the device
(since the MAC configuration cannot be changed thereafter).
Note that since the two Ethernet ports use the same MAC address, the external switches
connected to the device can in some cases create a noticeable switchover delay due to
their internal switching logic, though at the device level, the switchover delay is minimal
(milliseconds).
8.3
NAT (Network Address Translation) Support
Network Address Translation (NAT) is a mechanism that maps a set of internal IP
addresses used within a private network to global IP addresses, providing transparent
routing to end hosts. The primary advantages of NAT include (1) Reduction in the number
of global IP addresses required in a private network (global IP addresses are only used to
connect to the Internet); (2) Better network security by hiding its internal architecture.
The following figure illustrates the device's supported NAT architecture.
Figure 8-1: NAT Architecture

Document #: LTRT-68808
SIP User's Manual
8. Networking Capabilities
The design of SIP creates a problem for VoIP traffic to pass through NAT. SIP uses IP
addresses and port numbers in its message body and the NAT server can’t modify SIP
messages and therefore, can’t change local to global addresses. Two different streams
traverse through NAT: signaling and media. A device (located behind a NAT) that initiates a
signaling path has problems in receiving incoming signaling responses (they are blocked by
the NAT server). Furthermore, the initiating device must notify the receiving device where to
send the media.
To resolve these issues, the following mechanisms are available:
„
STUN (refer to ''STUN'' on page 381)
„
First Incoming Packet Mechanism (refer to ''First Incoming Packet Mechanism'' on
page 382)
„
RTP No-Op packets according to the avt-rtp-noop draft (refer to ''No-Op Packets'' on
page 382)
For information on SNMP NAT traversal, refer to the Product Reference Manual.
8.3.1
STUN
Simple Traversal of UDP through NATs (STUN), based on RFC 3489 is a client / server
protocol that solves most of the NAT traversal problems. The STUN server operates in the
public Internet and the STUN clients are embedded in end-devices (located behind NAT).
STUN is used both for the signaling and the media streams. STUN works with many
existing NAT types and does not require any special behavior.
STUN enables the device to discover the presence (and types) of NATs and firewalls
located between it and the public Internet. It provides the device with the capability to
determine the public IP address and port allocated to it by the NAT. This information is later
embedded in outgoing SIP / SDP messages and enables remote SIP user agents to reach
the device. It also discovers the binding lifetime of the NAT (the refresh rate necessary to
keep NAT ‘Pinholes’ open).
On startup, the device sends a STUN Binding Request. The information received in the
STUN Binding Response (IP address:port) is used for SIP signaling. This information is
updated every user-defined period (NATBindingDefaultTimeout).
At the beginning of each call and if STUN is required (i.e., not an internal NAT call), the
media ports of the call are mapped. The call is delayed until the STUN Binding Response
(that includes a global IP:port) for each media (RTP, RTCP and T.38) is received.
To enable STUN, perform the following:
„
Enable the STUN feature using either the Web interface (refer to ''Configuring the
Application Settings'' on page 57) or the ini file (set EnableSTUN to 1).
„
Define the STUN server address using one of the following methods:
„
Version 5.6
•
Define the IP address of the primary and the secondary (optional) STUN servers
using either the Web interface (refer to ''Configuring the Application Settings'' on
page 57) or the ini file (STUNServerPrimaryIP and STUNServerSecondaryIP). If
the primary STUN server isn’t available, the device attempts to communicate with
the secondary server.
•
Define the domain name of the STUN server using the ini file parameter
StunServerDomainName. The STUN client retrieves all STUN servers with an
SRV query to resolve this domain name to an IP address and port, sort the server
list, and use the servers according to the sorted list.
Use the ini file parameter NATBindingDefaultTimeout to define the default NAT binding
lifetime in seconds. STUN is used to refresh the binding information after this time
expires.
381
November 2008
Mediant 2000
Notes:
8.3.2
•
STUN only applies to UDP (doesn’t support TCP and TLS).
•
STUN can’t be used when the device is located behind a symmetric NAT.
•
Use either the STUN server IP address (STUNServerPrimaryIP) or
domain name (STUNServerDomainName) method, with priority to the
first one.
First Incoming Packet Mechanism
If the remote device resides behind a NAT device, it’s possible that the device can activate
the RTP/RTCP/T.38 streams to an invalid IP address / UDP port. To avoid such cases, the
device automatically compares the source address of the incoming RTP/RTCP/T.38 stream
with the IP address and UDP port of the remote device. If the two are not identical, the
transmitter modifies the sending address to correspond with the address of the incoming
stream. The RTP, RTCP and T.38 can thus have independent destination IP addresses and
UDP ports.
You can disable the NAT mechanism by setting the ini file parameter DisableNAT to 1. The
two parameters EnableIpAddrTranslation and EnableUdpPortTranslation allow you to
specify the type of compare operation that occurs on the first incoming packet. To compare
only the IP address, set EnableIpAddrTranslation to 1, and EnableUdpPortTranslation to 0.
In this case, if the first incoming packet arrives with only a difference in the UDP port, the
sending addresses won’t change. If both the IP address and UDP port need to be
compared, then both parameters need to be set to 1.
8.3.3
No-Op Packets
The device's No-Op packet support can be used to verify Real-Time Transport Protocol
(RTP) and T.38 connectivity, and to keep NAT bindings and Firewall pinholes open. The
No-Op packets are available for sending in RTP and T.38 formats.
You can control the activation of No-Op packets by using the ini file parameter
NoOpEnable. If No-Op packet transmission is activated, you can control the time interval in
which No-Op packets are sent in the case of silence (i.e., no RTP or T.38 traffic). This is
performed using the ini file parameter NoOpInterval. For a description of the RTP No-Op ini
file parameters, refer to ''Networking Parameters'' on page 260.
„
RTP No-Op: The RTP No-Op support complies with IETF’s draft-wing-avt-rtp-noop03.txt (titled ‘A No-Op Payload Format for RTP’). This IETF document defines a No-Op
payload format for RTP. The draft defines the RTP payload type as dynamic. You can
control the payload type with which the No-Op packets are sent. This is performed
using the RTPNoOpPayloadType ini parameter (refer to ''Networking Parameters'' on
page 260). AudioCodes’ default payload type is 120.
„
T.38 No-Op: T.38 No-Op packets are sent only while a T.38 session is activated. Sent
packets are a duplication of the previously sent frame (including duplication of the
sequence number).
Note: Receipt of No-Op packets is always supported.

8. Networking Capabilities
IP Multicasting
The device supports IP Multicasting level 1 according to RFC 2236 (i.e., IGMP version 2)
for RTP channels. The device is capable of transmitting and receiving Multicast packets.
8.5
Robust Reception of RTP Streams
This mechanism filters out unwanted RTP streams that are sent to the same port number
on the device. These multiple RTP streams can result from traces of previous calls, call
control errors, and deliberate attacks. When more than one RTP stream reaches the device
on the same port number, the device accepts only one of the RTP streams and rejects the
rest of the streams.
The RTP stream is selected according to the following: The first packet arriving on a newly
opened channel sets the source IP address and UDP port from which further packets are
received. Thus, the source IP address and UDP port identify the currently accepted stream.
If a new packet arrives whose source IP address or UDP port are different to the currently
accepted RTP stream, one of the following occurs:
8.6
„
The device reverts to the new RTP stream when the new packet has a source IP
address and UDP port that are the same as the remote IP address and UDP port that
were stated during the opening of the channel.
„
The packet is dropped when the new packet has any other source IP address and
UDP port.
Multiple Routers Support
Multiple routers support is designed to assist the device when it operates in a multiple
routers network. The device learns the network topology by responding to Internet Control
Message Protocol (ICMP) redirections and caches them as routing rules (with expiration
time).
When a set of routers operating within the same subnet serve as devices to that network
and intercommunicate using a dynamic routing protocol, the routers can determine the
shortest path to a certain destination and signal the remote host the existence of the better
route. Using multiple router support, the device can utilize these router messages to change
its next hop and establish the best path.
Note: Multiple Routers support is an integral feature that doesn’t require
configuration.
8.7
Simple Network Time Protocol Support
The Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) client functionality generates requests and
reacts to the resulting responses using the NTP version 3 protocol definitions (according to
RFC 1305). Through these requests and responses, the NTP client synchronizes the
system time to a time source within the network, thereby eliminating any potential issues
should the local system clock 'drift' during operation. By synchronizing time to a network
time source, traffic handling, maintenance, and debugging become simplified for the
network administrator.
Version 5.6
383
November 2008
Mediant 2000
The NTP client follows a simple process in managing system time: the NTP client requests
an NTP update, receives an NTP response, and then updates the local system clock based
on a configured NTP server within the network.
The client requests a time update from a specified NTP server at a specified update
interval. In most situations, this update interval is every 24 hours based on when the system
was restarted. The NTP server identity (as an IP address) and the update interval are userdefined using either the Web interface (refer to ''Configuring the Application Settings'' on
page 57), the ini file (NTPServerIP and NTPUpdateInterval respectively), or an SNMP MIB
object (refer to the Product Reference Manual).
When the client receives a response to its request from the identified NTP server, it must be
interpreted based on time zone or location offset that the system is to a standard point of
reference called the Universal Time Coordinate (UTC). The time offset that the NTP client
uses is configurable using the Web interface (refer to ''Configuring the Application Settings''
on page 57), the ini file (NTPServerUTCOffset), or via an SNMP MIB object (refer to the
Product Reference Manual).
If required, the clock update is performed by the client as the final step of the update
process. The update is performed in such a way as to be transparent to the end users. For
instance, the response of the server may indicate that the clock is running too fast on the
client. The client slowly robs bits from the clock counter to update the clock to the correct
time. If the clock is running too slow, then in an effort to catch the clock up, bits are added
to the counter, causing the clock to update quicker and catch up to the correct time. The
advantage of this method is that it does not introduce any disparity in the system time that
is noticeable to an end user or that could corrupt call timeouts and timestamps.
8.8
IP QoS via Differentiated Services (DiffServ)
DiffServ is an architecture providing different types or levels of service for IP traffic. DiffServ
(according to RFC 2474) offers the capability to prioritize certain traffic types depending on
their priority, thereby, accomplishing a higher-level QoS at the expense of other traffic
types. By prioritizing packets, DiffServ routers can minimize transmission delays for timesensitive packets such as VoIP packets.
The device can be configured to set a different DiffServ value to IP packets according to
their class-of-service: Network, Premium Media, Premium Control, Gold, and Bronze. The
DiffServ parameters are described in ''Networking Parameters'' on page 260.
For the mapping of an application to its class-of-service, refer to ''IEEE 802.1p/Q (VLANs
and Priority)'' on page 385.
8.9
VLANS and Multiple IPs
8.9.1
Multiple IPs
Media, Control, and Management (OAMP) traffic in the device can be assigned one of the
following IP addressing schemes:
„
Single IP address for all traffic (i.e., for Media, Control, and OAMP).
„
Separate IP address for each of the three traffic types: The different traffic types
are separated into three dedicated networks. Instead of a single IP address, the device
is assigned three IP addresses and subnet masks, each relating to a different traffic
type. This architecture enables you to integrate the device into a three-network
environment that is focused on security and segregation. Each entity in the device
(e.g., Web and RTP) is mapped to a single traffic type (according to the table in ''IEEE
802.1p/Q (VLANs and Priority)'' on page 385) in which it operates.

8. Networking Capabilities
Dual IP mode: The device is assigned two IP addresses for the different traffic types.
One IP address is assigned to a combination of two traffic types (Media and Control,
OAMP and Control, or OAMP and Media), while the other IP address is assigned to
whichever traffic type not included in this combination. For example, a typical scenario
using this mode includes one IP address assigned to Control and OAMP, and another
IP address assigned to Media.

The IP address and subnet mask used in the Single IP Network mode are
used for the OAM traffic type in the Multiple IP Network mode.
IEEE 802.1p/Q (VLANs and Priority)
The Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) mechanism enables the device to be integrated into
a VLAN-aware environment that includes switches, routers and endpoints. When in VLANenabled mode, each packet is tagged with values that specify its priority (class-of-service /
IEEE 802.1p) and the identifier (traffic type) of the VLAN to which it belongs (Media,
Control, or OAMP / IEEE 802.1Q).
The class-of-service (CoS) mechanism can be utilized to accomplish Ethernet Quality of
Service (QoS). Packets sent by the device to the Ethernet network are divided into five
different-priority classes (Network, Premium Media, Premium Control, Gold, and Bronze).
The priority of each class is determined by a corresponding ini file parameter.
Traffic type tagging can be used to implement Layer 2 VLAN security. By discriminating
traffic into separate and independent domains, the information is preserved within the
VLAN. Incoming packets received from an incorrect VLAN are discarded.
The traffic tagging mechanism is as follows:
„
Outgoing packets (from the device to the switch): All outgoing packets are tagged,
each according to its interface (Control, Media or OAMP). If the device’s native VLAN
ID is identical to one of the other IDs (usually to the OAMP's VLAN ID), this ID (e.g.,
OAMP) is set to zero on outgoing packets (VlanSendNonTaggedOnNative set to 0).
This method is called Priority Tagging (p tag without Q tag). If the parameter
VlanSendNonTaggedOnNative is set to 1, the device sends regular packets (with no
VLAN tag).
„
Incoming packets (from the switch to the device): The switch sends all packets
intended for the device (according to the switch’s configuration) to the device without
altering them. For packets whose VLAN ID is identical to the switch’s PVID, the switch
removes the tag and sends a packet. The device accepts only packets that have a
VLAN ID identical to one of its interfaces (Control, Media or OAMP). Packets with a
VLAN ID that is 0 or untagged packets are accepted only if the device’s native VLAN
ID is identical to the VLAN ID of one of its interfaces. In this case, the packets are sent
to the relevant interface. All other packets are rejected.

Media traffic type is assigned ‘Premium media’ CoS, Management traffic type is assigned
‘Bronze’ CoS, and Control traffic type is assigned ‘Premium control’ CoS. For example,
RTP/RTCP traffic is assigned the Media VLAN ID and ‘Premium media’ CoS, whereas Web
traffic is assigned the Management VLAN ID and ‘Bronze’ CoS. Each of these parameters
can be configured with a 802.1p/Q value: traffic type to VLAN ID, and CoS to 802.1p
priority.
Figure 8-2: Multiple Network Interfaces and VLANs
Notes:
•
For security, the VLAN mechanism is activated only when the device is
loaded from the flash memory. Therefore, when using BootP:
Load an ini file with VlanMode set to 1 and SaveConfiguration set to 1.
Then (after the device is active) reset the device with TFTP disabled or
by using any method except for BootP.
•
For information on how to configure VLAN parameters, refer to
''Configuring the IP Settings'' on page 50.
•
•
The device must be connected to a VLAN-aware switch and the switch’s
PVID must be equal to the device’s native VLAN ID.

Getting Started with VLANS and Multiple IPs
Gold
By default, the device operates without VLANs and multiple IPs, using a single IP address,
subnet mask and default Gateway IP address. This section provides an example of the
configuration required to integrate the device into a multiple IPs network withVLANs, using
the Web interface (refer to ''Integrating Using the Web Interface'' on page 388) and ini file
(refer to ''Integrating Using the ini File'' on page 390). The following table shows an example

Notes:
8.9.3.1
•
The values provided in this section are only used as an example.
•
Since a default Gateway is available only for the Media network, for the
device to be able to communicate with an external device/network on its
OAMP and Control networks, IP routing rules must be used.
Integrating Using the Web Interface
The procedure below describes how to integrate the device into a multiple IPs network
withVLANs, using the Web interface.
¾ To integrate the device into a multiple IPs network withVLANs
using the Web interface, take these 6 steps:
1.
Access the Web interface (refer to ''Accessing the Web Interface'' on page 20).
2.
Use the Software Upgrade Wizard (refer to ''Software Upgrade Wizard'' on page 236)
to load and burn the firmware version to the device (VLANs and multiple IPs support is
available only when the firmware is burned to flash).
3.
Configure the VLAN parameters by completing the following steps:
a.
Open the 'IP Settings' page (refer to ''Configuring the IP Settings'' on page 50).
b.
Modify the VLAN parameters to correspond to the values shown in the following
figure:
Figure 8-3: VLAN Configuration in the IP Settings Page

8. Networking Capabilities
In the ‘IP Settings’ page, modify the IP parameters to correspond to the values
shown in the figure below. Note that the OAM, Control, and Media Network
Settings parameters appear only after you select the options ‘Multiple IP
Networks’ or 'Dual IP' in the field ‘IP Networking Mode’.
Figure 8-4: OAM, Control, Media IP Configuration in the IP Settings Page
Instead of configuring in the ‘IP Settings’ page, you can use the 'Multiple Interface
Table' page, which is accessed from the ‘IP Settings’ page by clicking the right-arrow
button alongside the label 'Multiple Interface Table' (refer to ''Configuring the
Multiple Interface Table'' on page 53). The 'Multiple Interface Table' page provides
greater configuration flexibility whereby you can also assign VLANs to the different
interfaces.

Integrating Using the ini File
The procedure below describes how to integrate the device into a multiple IPs network with
VLANs, using the ini file. The procedure below is based on the example setup described in
''Getting Started with VLANS and Multiple IPs'' on page 387.
¾ To integrate the device into a multiple IPs network withVLANs
using the ini file, take these 3 steps:
1.
Prepare an ini file (using the ini file table parameter InterfaceTable) with relevant
parameters:
•
If the BootP/TFTP utility and the OAMP interface are located on the same
network, the Native VLAN ID (VlanNativeVlanId) must be equal to the OAMP
VLAN ID (VlanOamVlanId), which in turn must be equal to the PVID of the switch
port to which the device is connected. Therefore, set the PVID of the switch port
to 4 (in this example).
•
Configure the OAMP parameters only if the OAMP networking parameters are
different from the networking parameters used in the Single IP Network mode.
•
The 'IP Routing' table is required to define static routing rules for the OAMP and
Control networks since a default Gateway isn’t supported for these networks.

9. Advanced PSTN Configuration
Advanced PSTN Configuration
This section discusses advanced PSTN configurations.
9.1
Clock Settings
In a traditional TDM service network such as PSTN, both ends of the TDM connection must
be synchronized. If synchronization is not achieved, voice frames are either dropped (to
prevent a buffer overflow condition) or inserted (to prevent an underflow condition). In both
cases, connection quality and reliability is affected.
The device's clock settings can be configured to one of the following:
„
Generate its own timing signals
„
Use an internal clock
„
Recover a clock from one of the PSTN E1/T1 trunks
¾ To use the device's internal clock source, configure the following
parameters:
„
TDMBusClockSource = 1
„
ClockMaster = 1 (for all trunks)
¾ To use the recovered clock option, configure the following
parameters:
„
TDMBusClockSource = 4
„
ClockMaster_x = 0 (for all ‘slave’ trunks connected to PBX#1)
„
ClockMaster_x = 1 (for all ‘master’ trunks connected to PBX#2)
The above assumes that the device recovers its internal clock from one of the ‘slave’ trunks
connected to PBX#1 and provides clock to PBX#2 on its ‘master’ trunks. In addition, it's
necessary to define from which of the ‘slave’ trunks the device recovers its clock:
„
TDMBusPSTNAutoClockEnable = 1 (device automatically selects one of the
connected ‘slave’ trunks)
- Or -
„
TDMBusLocalReference = # (trunk number, where 0 is the first trunk - and the default)
Notes:
Version 5.6
•
To configure the TDM Bus Clock Source parameters using the Web
interface, refer to ''Configuring the TDM Bus Settings'' on page 218.
•
When the device is used in a ‘non-span’ configuration, the internal device
clock must be used (as explained above).

Release Reason Mapping
This section describes the available mapping mechanisms of SIP responses to Q.850
Release Causes and vice versa. The existing mapping of ISDN Release Causes to SIP
Responses is described in ''Fixed Mapping of ISDN Release Reason to SIP Response'' on
page 394 and ''Fixed Mapping of SIP Response to ISDN Release Reason'' on page 396. To
override this hard-coded mapping and flexibly map SIP responses to ISDN Release
Causes, use the ini file (CauseMapISDN2SIP and CauseMapSIP2ISDN, as described in
''ISDN and CAS Interworking-Related Parameters'' on page 307) or the Web interface (refer
to ''Release Cause Mapping'' on page 189).
It is also possible to map the less commonly used SIP responses to a single default ISDN
Release Cause. Use the parameter DefaultCauseMapISDN2IP (described in ''ISDN and
CAS Interworking-Related Parameters'' on page 307) to define a default ISDN Cause that is
always used except when the following Release Causes are received: Normal Call Clearing
(16), User Busy (17), No User Responding (18) or No Answer from User (19). This
mechanism is only available for Tel-to-IP calls.
9.2.1
Reason Header
The device supports the Reason header according to RFC 3326. The Reason header
conveys information describing the disconnection cause of a call:
„
Sending Reason header: If a call is disconnected from the Tel side (ISDN), the
Reason header is set to the received Q.850 cause in the appropriate message (BYE /
CANCEL / final failure response) and sent to the SIP side. If the call is disconnected
because of a SIP reason, the Reason header is set to the appropriate SIP response.
„
Receiving Reason header: If a call is disconnected from the IP side and the SIP
message includes the Reason header, it is sent to the Tel side according to the
following logic:
•
If the Reason header includes a Q.850 cause, it is sent as is.
•
If the Reason header includes a SIP response:
•
9.2.2
♦
If the message is a final response, the response status code is translated to
Q.850 format and passed to ISDN.
♦
If the message isn’t a final response, it is translated to a Q.850 cause.
When the Reason header is received twice (i.e., SIP Reason and Q.850), the
Q.850 takes precedence over the SIP reason and is sent to the Tel side.

ISDN Overlap Dialing
Overlap dialing is a dialing scheme used by several ISDN variants to send and / or receive
called number digits one after the other (or several at a time). This is in contrast to en-bloc
dialing in which a complete number is sent.
The device can optionally support ISDN overlap dialing for incoming ISDN calls for the
entire device by setting the ini file parameter ISDNRxOverlap to 1, or per E1/T1 span by
setting ISDNRxOverlap_x to 1 (where x represents the number of the trunk). For
configuring ISDN overlap dialing using the Web interface, refer to ''Configuring the Trunk
Settings'' on page 82.
To play a Dial tone to the ISDN user side when an empty called number is received, set
ISDNINCallsBehavior = 65536 (bit #16). This results in the Progress Indicator to be
included in the SetupAck ISDN message.
The device stops collecting digits (for ISDN-to-IP calls) when:
„
The sending device transmits a ‘sending complete’ IE in the ISDN Setup or the
following INFO messages to signal that no more digits are going to be sent.
„
The inter-digit timeout (configured by the parameter TimeBetweenDigits) expires. The
default for this timeout is 4 seconds.
„
The maximum allowed number of digits (configured by the parameter MaxDigits) is
reached. The default is 30 digits.
„
A match is found with the defined digit map (configured by the parameter,
DigitMapping).

ISDN Non-Facility Associated Signaling (NFAS)
In regular T1 ISDN trunks, a single 64 kbps channel carries signaling for the other 23 Bchannels of that particular T1 trunk. This channel is called the D-channel and usually
resides on timeslot # 24. The ISDN Non-Facility Associated Signaling (NFAS) feature
enables the use of a single D-channel to control multiple PRI interfaces.
With NFAS it is possible to define a group of T1 trunks, called an NFAS group, in which a
single D-channel carries ISDN signaling messages for the entire group. The NFAS group’s
B-channels are used to carry traffic such as voice or data. The NFAS mechanism also
enables definition of a backup D-channel on a different T1 trunk, to be used if the primary
D-channel fails.
The NFAS group can comprise up to 10 T1 trunks. Each T1 trunk is called an ‘NFAS
member’. The T1 trunk whose D-channel is used for signaling is called the ‘Primary NFAS
Trunk’. The T1 trunk whose D-channel is used for backup signaling is called the ‘Backup
NFAS Trunk’. The primary and backup trunks each carry 23 B-channels while all other
NFAS trunks each carry 24 B-channels.
The device supports up to 9 NFAS groups. Each group must contain different T1 trunks.

9. Advanced PSTN Configuration
The NFAS group is identified by an NFAS GroupID number (possible values are 1 to 9). To
assign a number of T1 trunks to the same NFAS group, use the ini file parameter
NFASGroupNumber_x = groupID (where x is the physical trunk ID (0 to the maximum
number of trunks) or the Web interface (refer to ''Configuring the Trunk Settings'' on page
82).
The parameter ‘DchConfig_x = Trunk_type’ defines the type of NFAS trunk. Trunk_type is
set to 0 for the primary trunk, to 1 for the backup trunk, and to 2 for an ordinary NFAS trunk.
‘x’ depicts the physical trunk ID (0 to the maximum number of trunks). You can also use the
Web interface (refer to ''Configuring the Trunk Settings'' on page 82).
For example, to assign the first four T1 trunks to NFAS group #1, in which trunk #0 is the
primary trunk and trunk #1 is the backup trunk, use the following configuration:
NFASGroupNumber 0
NFASGroupNumber_1
NFASGroupNumber_2
NFASGroupNumber_3
DchConfig_0 = 0
DchConfig_1 = 1
DchConfig_2 = 2
DchConfig_3 = 2

The NFAS parameters are described in ''PSTN Parameters'' on page 303.
9.4.1
NFAS Interface ID
Several ISDN switches require an additional configuration parameter per T1 trunk that is
called ‘Interface Identifier’. In NFAS T1 trunks, the Interface Identifier is sent explicitly in
Q.931 Setup / Channel Identification IE for all NFAS trunks, except for the B-channels of
the Primary trunk (refer to note below).
The Interface ID can be defined per member (T1 trunk) of the NFAS group, and must be
coordinated with the configuration of the Switch. The default value of the Interface ID is
identical to the number of the physical T1 trunk (0 for the first trunk, 1 for the second T1
trunk, and so on, up to the maximum number of trunks).
To define an explicit Interface ID for a T1 trunk (that is different from the default), use the
following parameters:
„
ISDNIBehavior_x = 512 (x = 0 to the maximum number of trunks identifying the
device's physical trunk)
„
ISDNNFASInterfaceID_x = ID (x = 0 to 255)
Notes:
Version 5.6
•
Usually the Interface Identifier is included in the Q.931 Setup/Channel
Identification IE only on T1 trunks that doesn’t contain the D-channel.
Calls initiated on B-channels of the Primary T1 trunk, by default, don’t
contain the Interface Identifier. Setting the parameter ISDNIBehavior_x to
2048’ forces the inclusion of the Channel Identifier parameter also for the
Primary trunk.
•
The parameter ISDNNFASInterfaceID_x = ID can define the ‘Interface ID’
for any Primary T1 trunk, even if the T1 trunk is not a part of an NFAS
group. However, to include the Interface Identifier in Q.931
Setup/Channel Identification IE configure ISDNIBehavior_x = 2048 in the
ini file.

Working with DMS-100 Switches
The DMS-100 switch requires the following NFAS Interface ID definitions:
„
InterfaceID #0 for the Primary trunk
„
InterfaceID #1 for the Backup trunk
„
InterfaceID #2 for a 24 B-channel T1 trunk
„
InterfaceID #3 for a 24 B-channel T1 trunk, and so on for subsequent T1 trunks
For example, if four T1 trunks on a device are configured as a single NFAS group with
Primary and Backup T1 trunks that is used with a DMS-100 switch, the following
parameters should be used:
NFASGroupNumber 0
NFASGroupNumber_1
NFASGroupNumber_2
NFASGroupNumber_3
DchConfig_0 = 0
DchConfig_1 = 1
DchConfig_2 = 2
DchConfig_3 = 2
= 1
= 1
= 1
= 1
;Primary T1 trunk
;Backup T1 trunk
;B-Channel NFAS trunk
;B-channel NFAS trunk
If there is no NFAS Backup trunk, the following configuration should be used:
ISDNNFASInterfaceID 0 = 0
ISDNNFASInterfaceID_1 = 2
ISDNNFASInterfaceID_2 = 3
ISDNNFASInterfaceID_3 = 4
ISDNIBehavior = 512
;This parameter should be added because of
;ISDNNFASInterfaceID coniguration above
NFASGroupNumber_0 = 1
NFASGroupNumber_1 = 1
NFASGroupNumber_2 = 1
NFASGroupNumber_3 = 1
DchConfig_0 = 0

9.4.3
Creating an NFAS-Related Trunk Configuration
The procedures for creating and deleting an NFAS group must be performed in the correct
order, as described below.
¾ To create an NFAS Group, take these 3 steps:
1.
If there’s a backup (‘secondary’) trunk for this group, it must be configured first.
2.
Configure the primary trunk before configuring any NFAS (‘slave’) trunk.
3.
Configure NFAS (‘slave’) trunks.

9. Advanced PSTN Configuration
¾ To stop / delete an NFAS Group, take these 3 steps:
1.
Stop or delete (by setting ProtocolType to 0, i.e., 'None') all NFAS (‘slave’) trunks.
2.
Stop or delete (by setting ProtocolType to 0, i.e., 'None') the backup trunk if a backup
trunk exists.
3.
Stop or delete (by setting ProtocolType to 0, i.e., 'None') the primary trunk.
Notes:
9.5
•
All trunks in the group must be configured with the same values for trunk
parameters TerminationSide, ProtocolType, FramingMethod, and
LineCode.
•
After stopping or deleting the backup trunk, delete the group and then
reconfigure it.
•
NFAS groups cannot be configured on-the-fly.

Automatic Gain Control (AGC)
Automatic Gain Control (AGC) adjusts the energy of the output signal to a required level
(i.e., volume). This feature compensates for near-far gain differences. AGC estimates the
energy of the incoming signal (from the IP or PSTN, determined by the parameter
AGCRedirection), calculates the essential gain, and then performs amplification. Feedback
ensures that the output signal is not clipped. You can define the required Gain Slope in
decibels per second (using the parameter AGCGainSlop) and the required signal energy
threshold (using the parameter AGCTargetEnergy).
When the AGC first detects an incoming signal, it begins operating in Fast Mode, which
allows the AGC to adapt quickly when a conversation starts. This means that the Gain
Slope is 8 dB/sec for the first 1.5 seconds. After this period, the Gain Slope is changed to
the user-defined value. You can disable or enable the AGC's Fast Mode feature, using the
ini file parameter AGCDisableFastAdaptation. After Fast Mode is used, the signal should be
off for two minutes in order to have the feature turned on again.
To configure AGC, refer to ''Configuring the IPmedia Settings'' on page 76.

10. Tunneling Applications
Tunneling Applications
This section discusses TDM and QISG tunneling, supported by the device.
10.1
TDM Tunneling
The device's TDM Tunneling feature allows you to tunnel groups of digital trunk spans or
timeslots (B-channels) over the IP network. TDM Tunneling utilizes the device's internal
routing (without Proxy control) capabilities to receive voice and data streams from TDM
(E1/T1/J1/) spans or individual timeslots, convert them into packets, and then transmit them
over the IP network (using point-to-point or point-to-multipoint device distributions). A
device opposite it (or several devices when point-to-multipoint distribution is used) converts
the IP packets back into TDM traffic. Each timeslot can be targeted to any other timeslot
within a trunk in the opposite device.
When TDM Tunneling is enabled ('Enable TDM Tunneling' parameter is set to 'Enable' on
the originating device -- refer to ''Configuring the Digital Gateway Parameters'' on page
207), the originating device automatically initiates SIP calls from all enabled B-channels
belonging to the E1/T1/J1 spans that are configured with the protocol type ‘Transparent’ (for
ISDN trunks) or ‘Raw CAS’ (for CAS trunks). The called number of each call is the internal
phone number of the B-channel from where the call originates. The 'IP to Trunk Group
Routing' table (refer to ''IP to Trunk Group Routing'' on page 181) is used to define the
destination IP address of the terminating device. The terminating device automatically
answers these calls if its E1/T1 protocol type is set to ‘Transparent’ (ProtocolType = 5) or
‘Raw CAS’ (ProtocolType = 3 for T1 and 9 for E1) and the parameter ChannelSelectMode
is set to 0 (By Phone Number).
Note: It's possible to configure both devices to also operate in symmetric mode. To
do so, set EnableTDMOverIP to 1 and configure the 'Tel to IP Routing' tables
in both devices. In this mode, each device (after it's reset) initiates calls to the
second device. The first call for each B-channel is answered by the second
device.
The device continuously monitors the established connections. If for some reason, one or
more calls are released, the device automatically re-establishes these ‘broken’ connections.
In addition, when a failure in a physical trunk or in the IP network occurs, the device reestablishes the tunneling connections when the network is restored.
Note: It's recommended to use the keep-alive mechanism for each connection, by
activating the ‘session expires’ timeout and using Re-INVITE messages.
By utilizing the ‘Profiles’ mechanism (refer to ''Configuring the Profile Definitions'' on page
190), you can configure the TDM Tunneling feature to choose different settings based on a
timeslot or groups of timeslots. For example, you can use low-bit-rate vocoders to transport
voice and ‘Transparent’ coder to transport data (e.g., for D-channel). You can also use
Profiles to assign ToS (for DiffServ) per source -- a timeslot carrying data or signaling is
assigned a higher priority value than a timeslot carrying voice.
For tunneling of E1/T1 CAS trunks, set the protocol type to 'Raw CAS' (ProtocolType = 3 /
9) and enable RFC 2833 CAS relay mode ('CAS Transport Type' parameter is set to 'CAS
RFC2833 Relay' -- refer to ''Configuring the Voice Settings'' on page 66).
Version 5.6

Note: For TDM over IP, the 'Caller ID Transport Type' parameter must be set to
'Disable', i.e., transparent (refer to ''Configuring the Fax / Modem / CID
Settings'' on page 67).

QSIG Tunneling
The device supports QSIG tunneling over SIP according to IETF draft 'Tunnelling of QSIG
over SIP' (draft-elwell-sipping-qsig-tunnel-03) and the ECMA-355/ISO/IEC 22535 standard.
This method enables all QSIG messages to be sent as raw data in corresponding SIP
messages using a dedicated message body. This mechanism is useful for two QSIG
subscribers (connected to the same or different QSIG PBX) to communicate with each
other over an IP network. Tunneling is supported in both directions (Tel-to-IP and IP-to-Tel).
Version 5.6
405
November 2008
Mediant 2000
The term tunneling means that messages are transferred ‘as is’ to the remote side without
being converted (QSIGÆSIPÆQSIG). The advantage of tunneling over QSIG-to-SIP
interworking is that by using interworking, QSIG functionality can only be partially achieved.
When tunneling is used, all QSIG capabilities are supported, whereas the tunneling medium
(the SIP network) does not need to process these messages.
QSIG messages are transferred in SIP messages in a separate Multipurpose Internet Mail
Extensions (MIME) body. Therefore, if a message contains more than one body (e.g., SDP
and QSIG), multipart MIME must be used. The Content-Type of the QSIG tunneled
message is ‘application/QSIG’. In addition, the device adds a Content-Disposition header in
the following format:
Content-Disposition: signal; handling=required.
„
Call setup (originating device): The QSIG SETUP request is encapsulated in the
SIP INVITE message without being altered. After the SIP INVITE request is sent, the
device doesn’t encapsulate the subsequent QSIG message until a SIP 200 OK
response is received. If the originating device receives a 4xx, 5xx, or 6xx response, it
disconnects the QSIG call with a ‘no route to destination’ cause.
„
Call setup (terminating device): After the terminating device receives a SIP INVITE
request with a 'Content-Type: application/QSIG', it sends the encapsulated QSIG
SETUP message to the Tel side and sends a 200 OK response (no 1xx response is
sent) to IP. The 200 OK response includes an encapsulated QSIG CALL
PROCEEDING message (without waiting for a CALL PROCEEDING message from
the Tel side). If tunneling is disabled and the incoming INVITE includes a QSIG body,
a 415 response is sent.
„
Mid-call communication: After the SIP connection is established, all QSIG messages
are encapsulated in SIP INFO messages.
„
Call tear-down: The SIP connection is terminated once the QSIG call is complete.
The RELEASE COMPLETE message is encapsulated in the SIP BYE message that
terminates the session.
To enable QSIG tunneling, set the parameter EnableQSIGTunneling to 1 on both the
originating and terminating devices, and the parameter ISDNDuplicateQ931BuffMode to
128 (duplicate all messages) (both parameters are described in ''ISDN and CAS
Interworking-Related Parameters'' on page 307).
